At first I thought it was a plane coming in my direction. When their lights are at their brightest to you. But it was large and still light out. Then I wondered if it was a fire work but it was going in a straight line and parallel to the roofs tops. There was no sound when it fragmented. So I knew it was not a fire work. It seems so low.
