It now seems that the burst tyre (s) was as a result of the pilot applying the emergency breaking due to a serious technical fault being indicated .
A local pilots network is posting that the fault indication was a false alarm.
As CPH-F mentions above - local sights are posting that several passengers were injured due to heavy objects being dropped on them from the overhead bins by fellow passengers and at least one of with minor injuries somehow fell from the slide
