Corroboration under way
One piece is missing to confirm

Your description stays private — only the type and the area can appear, and only if other witnesses confirm.
What's missing to corroborate
- An official source (local authority, prefecture, ministry)
- A third independent newsroom
- A witness on the ground to pin the exact area
