Moving Star (white dot) vanished with orange flash

I was watching the fireworks with my 6 year old son. I looked away from the fireworks and up at the stars around me. Suddenly one of the stars started moving at a odd angle and a fast rate of speed. After about 2 minutes the object dimmed out and I saw a dark orange flash around the area it dimmed. After that i could not find it in the sky anymore. I noticed after it disappeared that there was a airplane following the path that the object took.
