Orange stationary light which three other orange lights dropped from.

As I stepped out onto my balcony at 11:22pm I lit a cigarette and looked up at the incoming jets to LAX. I noticed an orange looking light that I assumed was also an incoming jet, but it did not move. As I watched this light I could see the jets were actually flying under this light. Then I noticed another orange light drop straight down from this statioary light. The second light to fall from this light had a trail behind it. I called my girlfriend to come outside and see this light show, before see was able to get outside a third light fell from the light. When my girlfriend did arrive we watched the light flicker off then on, then fade out and on, and finally it went completely out.
