A slowly streaking orange glow dispersed into many fragments before disappearing and then there were formations made by pins of light

Around 9:57 pm my fiancée noticed an orange streak of light in the sky. I was riding passenger and 5-10 seconds passed before I got my phone out to try to record it.

The orange streak was descending and then seemed to disperse into many pieces and when it did that it was like chromatic aberration — the pieces looked like there were becoming blurred and seeing it looked unnatural like watching something in slow motion.

Then the pieces disappeared as they neared the horizon. I kept looking to the horizon to see if I could see anything and from the direction we were driving in I could see lights above a mountain range making formations of triangles and moving extremely fast. If I had to guess I would say they were above the Sacaton mountains.

We ended up getting off the exit 185 to take a quick drive through the mountains to see if we saw anything and drove back home toward casa grande afterward. Marissa then said she saw a grey streak of light come down from the sky very quickly.
