The local news reported first that the plane lost two wheels. This was updated soon - the front tires blew during a hard landing. The plane did not leave the runway. It was towed to a taxiway afterwards, blocking most KRK traffic. No casualties of any kind.

Oh, one more interesting thing. The plane was suppoused to go back to the UK on a return flight. Ryanair did not send a a second plane; instead, they dispatched an engineer to fix the wheels so the plane can go back on wednesday. This comes from the local news, so it might not be true at all.
