incorrect location and time on photo

I have a photo on my phone that I took with my phone however the location comes up as a place in a different country and the time and date are also wrong on the file name. Any idea how this could happen

Hi. Welcome to Android Central. Have you modified your phone's time and date settings recently?

Does it happen when you take other photos?

No.....all my other ones are fairly accurate. I do have an accu weather app that puts locations on photos too

That might be the problem. That or your GPS was acting wonky for a bit.
