US incident at PHL

[Dont call me Shirley]

There has been an incident at PHL, possibly after an aborted take-off.  From what little info there is, looks like everyone okay.  Nothing on any news site yet, but this Twitter was posted on flyertalk.com:

Some sources are saying that part of the tire was ingested into the engine as well. Early pictures show a fair amount of smoke coming off the engine.

That someone can tweet right after hitting the slide speaks volumes about the pilot & F/As' professionalism...

According to catcrew, it looks like it was tail number 113.
 
Glad everyone was ok. Once they fix the nosegear, perhaps it will head off to the paint shop and be the next in line for the new colors...
