Glowing object in the sky over fireworks display.

My Wife and I were attending a firewaorks Display at a Ballfield in our hometown. After the fireworks were over and most people had gone home, my wife and I were sitting on a blanket and I noticed a bright red and orange glowing ball about 1000 feet in front of us. It moved extremely slowly in a North Easterly direction. I was close enough to see whatever was inside of this glowing ball was similiar to fire. It also made a buzzing and hissing sound.

My partner and I watched this object move across the sky until it faded out of sight. I am not sure if others had seen it however there were still a lot of cars leaving the ballfield so I believe someone must have noticed it? The next day on my way to work, I heard on the radio (95.7 fm) some kids had seen a similiar object in the night sky in the there area after watchimng fireworks( about 100kms) away.

I didnt think anymore on this subjct until I tread a report on your website on a similar incident.
