Seen light come out of the clouds

We were standing out front of the house, when starting at the north, a brilliant like 10 point star came out of the clouds heading eastward. It was going in and out of the clouds as it ran down the face of the mountains. It then turned south as it started circling the town. As it bobbed up and down through the clouds it caused them to swirl behind it. It took this easily 20 mile trip only a couple mins. it then headed west and disappeared behind our house. We ran in to tell our roommates and returned a couple mins later to see if anything else was going to happen. Just about that time , heading NW to SE a large red orb cut across the sky and disappeared very quickly.
That was it.
