The nose wheels tell the story. They self centre when the nose is in the air - here they have turned almost 180.
Looks to me like the tug has braked on an icy patch and been spun around to starboard until underneath the aircraft. Aircraft has then continued forwards up and over the tug pulling the nose wheels free of the tug.
