Large spherical object descending towards the Rockies, chased by jets.

At 11:46 Am, November the 11th 2016. Myself and my children were outside playing in the yard, then abruptly the dogs around the neighborhood started barking and a car driving by had its engine stop without reason, suddenly a loud roaring was heard by everyone. It was loud enough that the windows on our home were shaking violently.

I grabbed my children as my first thought was that it was a crashing airplane, or a missile. We looked up as all of the neighbors on the street exited their homes in fright. Up high in the sky was a "very" large spherical object streaming through the sky at high speeds emitting light grey smoke trailing behind. The object was metallic in appearance, shortly around 15-20 seconds into the sighting two military jets were seen flying at high speeds toward the object.

It was clear at this point that the object was descending very fast towards the Rocky Mountains. I am very familiar with all types of government aircraft, civilian and astronomical objects. This was neither. I'm not normally one to believe in the paranormal or extraterrestrials, but this was undeniable.

The next day I checked the news and local papers and nothing was said about a sighting or an meteor crash, I found no other way to report this other than here. (I would like to stay anonymous due to the fact that my reputation as a ((deleted--public employee)) is at risk.)
