My friend told me to quickly turn around and when I did it was the first thing I saw despite the street lights and and lights from the store that was below the fireball. It was a bright orange and my friend thought at first that someone shot a rocket. No sound was heard. Two fragments were spotted. Definitely something entering the atmosphere.

Two fragments. A large piece with a burning orange trail and in that trail was a smaller sized black fragment following it with its own orange burning trail. We first thought someone launched a rocket.
