Witness Testimony

"Orange/gold lights that seemed to "leap frog" across the north western Iowa sky.While driving home from work I watched very bright orange/gold lights seeming to play in the sky.It was fairly early in the evening. Only 5:15pm central time so it wasn’t extremely dark yet.These lights caught and held my attention since there is pretty much nothing but farm fields in the area of these lights. I was watching them trying to remember if there is anything new in the area. There is not.While I was watching, these lights seemed to be moving in a leap frog type fashion across the sky. I have never seen anything like this before. "
