Whatever I saw appeared to be crashing at a downward trajectory and likely would have disintegrated on impact

I have a video that I recorded during the town's firework display. The object in the video was red and, upon slowing down the video and capturing a freeze frame, it appeared to be shaped like the Starship Enterprise from Star Trek. Most people might dismiss it as a "shooting star" when they see the video. Although it wasn't perceived as a threat and was never reported in the media, I'm not an expert on this matter. I'm simply making the video available for anyone to view and form their own opinion.

In the attached video, it's between the 9 and 10 second mark entering towards the top right of the screen traveling to the bottom left of screen.
