Two bright fireballs seen in the northeastern sky above Fullerton, California.

Was walking home from the train station when in the north, northeast sky two large balls of light were spotted, I continued observing them, thinking them to be either planes or helicopters, when I noticed that the lights had tails, like fireballs. Thinking that they were meteorites, I continued walking, until I noticed that they both were not flying in a set path, but were instead moving rather rapidly, I continued watching, occasionally the light would die down to a small, almost pinpoint light that flashed about every second, but eventually the fire would flare back up and the objects would continue to fly, one even discharged what I thought was a ember that quickly died out and vanished.

While I was alone on the ground, I noticed an airplane with two headlights and a large wingspan flying above me, observing the UFOs, they eventually went over the horizon, and while I lost my visualization, the plane did not, and continued to follow them for as long as I was in the area and even after I left, I would assume after leaving Fullerton, the objects flew over Brea, and eventually the City of Industry, but that is left up to speculation based on their flight path at the time of the sighting.
