Perhaps, as the Embraer crossed in front of the 73, the left winglet gashed the No2 engine and the left side stab tip cut into the flight deck. The stab is a lot stronger than the winglet which would explain the fact that it seems to have little damage.
This would explain the lack of any RT after the incident.
