Object entered atmosphere as a streak, emitted a momentary high frequency, zig-zaging effortlessly from east to west

I was laying on my back near the shore of Lake Michigan in a city park. I saw what appeared to be a meteorite because it made a pronounced streak as it entered the atmosphere. A moment later, a very small object appeared in my sight. At the same time this object came into view I heard a sound from it. The sound was of a very high frequency--a very high pitch unlike I had ever heard before. But the sound was only heard when it first appeared and then ceased to make any sound. The object then moved from the east to the west quite swiftly. It moved in a zig-zag like fashion across the sky directly overhead to the western horizon and then disappeared. To view the object required strict attention on part of the observer.
