Just got this interesting observation report from a visitor in Belgium. Would anyone care to try and identify it?

The lead piece brightened and all looked like fire. Just wondering if you know what I saw. If you would like further description on this please let me know. Haven't seen anything on the news, but it was very very clearly visable. It looked like computer generated images of what the re entry of the Mir space station must have looked like to those who could see it's re entry.
