Unknown over Oak Park, CA

The report, as filed

While on my way to work, I noticed a bright red streak in the sky out of the driver side window. The streak was unusual so it caught my attention. It unexpectedly fade away very rapidly. Another object, or the same object I couldn't tell, appeared at a much closer distance. From what I can remember, this object had 3 orangish, reddish lights and some kind of energy flare that moved around the lights. The object then seemingly split apart and 1 of the lights rapidly moved crossed the sky and created 2 faint streams like a comet tail but 2 of them. After I followed the light that split from the object, I brought my field of Vision back to the original location where a large bright light, like a fire ball, was hovering in the sky.
