Initial data
The witness (a tourist) was in a new shopping center located far from the port on the Boulevard Jacquard, between the Rue Neuve and the Rue du Temple.
The shopping arcade consists of one large main entrance, and inside there are two main halls with a central block of shops. There are small entrances/exits at the other end, but the main entrance/exit to Jacquard Boulevard is the one that everyone seems to use. The witness walked through one main lobby on the left side, looked at several shops and noticed that at the far end, next to the small back exits, there was a Sushi bar.
Then he turned and walked on the other side to the main entrance/exit, and when he and his girlfriend turned the corner, he saw two young girls casually walking towards them, holding hands. He does not think that they were not twins, but they were both white, at the age of about 20, both had long (above the shoulders) light brown hair that was not tied.
They were also dressed in light blue jeans and matching leather jackets in a retro style. They had wide collars in the style of the 70s, which are pinched, then pinched back before ending, forming a line of the lower half of the coat. They were also clamped in the middle, since they had belts that fastened with a rather large square buckle in front. The strangest thing about these coats was that they were made of this strange green shiny material that was almost metallic in color.
This is something that the witness has never seen for sale in any store in the area or anywhere else for that matter.Thinking that it was strange that these adult girls were holding hands and were dressed the same, in these strange jackets, the witnesses went straight to the entrance of the store to go and have a drink.
When they got within 20 feet (6 m) of the entrance, the same two girls casually walked in through the front door, wearing the same clothes, holding hands, and they weren't out of breath or anything like that. To get to the front of the mall, they would have to exit through a small back exit and run down to meet with witnesses at that location.
It was clear that they did not run at all and in any case it would be pointless for them to do such a thing. The witness was convinced that they were not just twins, and his French friend Virginia assured him that it was not just a "French thing".
In fact, all the girls interviewed by the witness agreed that it was a strange way to dress for two adult girls. By the way, his girlfriend actually saw the "girls" at the entrance, as he indicated that he had previously seen them at the other end of the shopping center.

Summary: The witness (a tourist) was at a new shopping center situated away from the port on Boulevard Jacquard and between Rue Neuve and Rue du Temple. The shopping arcade comprises of one large main entrance and inside is two main concourses with a central block of shop units. There are small entrance/exits at the other end but the main entrance/exit on Boulevard Jacquard is the one that everyone seems to use. The witness had walked up the one main concourse on the left hand side, looking at a few of the shops and noticed that there was a Sushi Bar at the far end, near to the small rear exits. He then turned and went to walk down the other side towards the main entrance/exit, and as his girlfriend and he turned the corner, he saw that two young girls were walking casually towards them, holding hands. They were not twins, he doesn’t think, but they were both white, in their early 20’s both had long (past shoulder length) light brown hair which was not tied up. They were also wearing light blue denim jeans, and were wearing these identical retro look leather jackets. They had those 70’s style wide collars that pinch in then pinch back out before trailing off to form the line of the bottom half of the coat. They also both were pinched in at the middle as they had belts which were fastened with a rather large square buckle at the front. The strangest thing about the coats was that they were made of this strange green, shiny material which was almost metallic in color. Its something the witness had never seen for sale in any shop in the area or for anywhere else for that matter.Thinking it strange that these adult girls were holding hands and were dressed identically, with these strange jackets on, the witnesses made their way directly to the front of the store to go and get a drink. As they got to within 20 feet of the entrance, the same two girls casually walked in through the front door, wearing the same clothes, holding hands and they were not out of breath or anything. To get to the front of the shopping center, they would have had to leave at the small rear exit and sprint down in order to meet the witnesses at that point. It was clear that they had not been running at all and in any case, for them to do such a thing would be pointless. The witness was convinced that they were not just twins, and he was assured by his French friend, Virginie, that this wasn’t just a “French thing”. In fact, all the girls the witness had spoken to agree that this was a strange way for two adult girls to dress. Incidentally, his girlfriend did see the ‘girls’ at the entrance as he pointed out that he had seen them at the other end of the shopping center previously.
