Strange Hovering Lights Over Arizona - Same from Houston?

• When: April 10th, 2017 around 9 PM
• Where: Parker, Arizona
• What: Several bright orange lights hovering, blinking in strange patterns, and disappearing

An amazing video of UFOs over Arizona has been posted by the witness to their Faceook page. Since the video was posted, local news caught on and the video has now received over 2 million views! The witness insists that the strange lights they filmed are not meteors, as local news apparently reported:

As I was driving back to Phoenix this evening, I was a few miles past Parker, AZ when I saw a shooting star with a green hue in the corner of my eye. I kept driving for a few miles and noticed a small orange light far in the distance to my right. At first I thought that maybe a meteor had hit nearby and set a fire in the desert or possibly a distant antenna light.
I didn't quite think much of it and continued to drive for another three miles. I noticed that the light was gone. I drove another half of a mile and I saw the light appear again. This is when I realized that whatever this was, wasn’t normal.
I was about a quarter of a mile from the crossing between Highway 72 and Highway 95 between Parker and Quartzsite, Arizona.
I immediately pulled over and attached my camera to my tripod. To my SW direction, there were six orange-red lights floating around in the horizon. Some of them would dim out and then brighten back up, others just seemed to float and hover away slowly. They seemed to travel in a parallel pattern with a very bright fiery glisten. I took photos and videos and in less than 15 minutes, the mysterious objects vanished without a trace.
All of the photographs are timestamped and are not edited whatsoever. The video is slightly cropped for better viewing.
Whatever this was, I have never seen anything like this in my life before. Super cool experience.
*UPDATE* 4/11/17 11:22pm
I have noticed that my cameras clock is set 8 minutes ahead. Which means that the time stamps are all 8 minutes ahead. I also saw a video of the same exact thing but from the opposite end in El Centro, CA. That means that whatever this was, it was visible for at least 100 miles.
ABC15 is reporting that the photos were part of the meteor. They were not. The meteor struck about 10 minutes before I pulled over on HWY 95 and got footage of these lights. The difference in lighting you see in the photos is because I was using different settings to get a more visible photo of what they were.

This footage is very similar to a sighting in Houston during the same month:

Both sightings in Houston and Arizona are eerily reminiscent of the famous well-documented Phoenix Lights incident in 1997. Do you think these sightings are related? If so, could they be military...  or perhaps alien?... in origin? Share your theories on this UFO sighting and more in the comments or on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.
