Remarks
It looked like a shooting star at first but then got real big and bright with a small ring at one point around the largest part of the fireball (front end that was coming down) and that's about the time the light yellow and orange colors flashes appeared and close to the end a small piece come off the back that shot down straight or slightly right of the direction it was headed but I only saw that for maybe a second and continued to see the fireball for maybe another second before it was gone

The fragment was much much smaller the fireball - less than 10% of the fireball size
