Footage that appears to show glowing orange UFOs 'flying in formation' has sparked a wave of identical sightings in major cities across America.

Symkai Scott, from Baltimore, Maryland, spotted the lights floating in the air when returning home.

He said there were six or seven lights that were distinctively orange and round.

Footage shows the lights hovering above the streetlights in a uniform formation.

In the video, Scott asked people around him: “Y’all got any idea what those were? There was a bunch of them.”

He then posted the footage online and social media users recalled “identical sightings” in Washington DC, Las Vegas, St Louis, and Detroit.

One user from West Virginia commented: “I had half a bottle of wine in me and thought I was imagining it. I'm glad someone was sharing my hallucination.”

Another in northern California said: “I saw about 30 of these traveling slowly in a single-file line, then vanishing within a couple of seconds. “That orange glow is so distinctive.”
