It appeared to have impacted or died out somewhere in Sedalia Colorado area. I can't decisively say I saw fragmentation but I do certainly believe it fell within miles of me and did not just go out of my field of vision over the horizon

It was just what looked like fire and a green light and then a smoke trail I could see illuminated for 1.5- maybe 2 seconds after. I was facing north driving and the bright light caught my attention and I saw all of this.

Green colors and what looked like fire. The fire portion was lower and heading down and the green seemed like it was on the rtail of it. Followed by smoke behind that
