Bright lights in the sky over Muncie Indiana

We were driving east of the city of Muncie on the way home from a friend's house, and witnessed a light in the sky moving downward toward the ground. The light then climbed quickly in altitude and fell in what looked as if it was a fireball. We were unable to locate the site it dissapeared to.We think this could have been a plane crash, as the wind was exceptionally strong tonite. From that period until about 1230AM, we heard and witnessed lowflying jets in the area going unusually slow.
