fireball followed by unusual aircraft

Myself & friend. 2 male adults were outside facing west about midnight , I saw a flaming fireball travel northeast, duration 3-seconds, not a brief meteor.

As I was still staring at that spot I saw a cigar shaped dim object come in to veiw immidiatly at that spot. It appeared about 5000 feet high. I could see a a fulsilage. But when I told my friend to turn and look, he could only see a flaming red light on the tail.

There was no sound following whatsoever and there were no FAA lights at Fireball followed by unuall.

The object traveled our full length of view across the sky in about four seconds, much too fast for an aircraft.

This event did take place due south of Camp Roberts, CA.
