Green Object streaks across the sky while jet fighter crashes in ocean...

On the Saturday the 28th of January at 2050hrs i was on my way to work with a collegue when we both witnessed a green teardrop object with a tail that waved left to right streak past heading north east (towards the ocean).

The following day i heard a report on the news that a Fighter Jet from the USS Ronald Reagan had gone down in the ocean whilst on night exercises.

The Pilot ejected safely and was picked up by search and rescue within 15 minutes.

I have witnessed many shooting stars but i have never seen anything like this before and when i heard the report on the news, it made me wonder wether the two incidents were related?
