Red, green and white bright light seen in New River, AZ night sky.

My husband and I were driving north on New River road just south of the intersection with Honda Bow when suddenly we saw a very bright object that had three lights. It was mostly half red light and half green light with a small white component.

It was headed east (possibly northeast) and about 15 degrees downward for a few seconds. It seemed like a falling star or crashing aircraft, but then it instantly changed trajectory to completely horizontal for about a second then disappeared, possibly going behind some mountains??
