757 with 307pax gear collapse?

Just found this....



A Boeing 757-200 chartered by Air Niamey (Niger), Hajj flight from Garoua (Cameroon) to Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) with 307 passengers, was taxiing towards the runway, when the left main gear collapsed reportedly causing the airplane to drop onto its left engine. The pilgrims on board panicked and were evacuated. No injuries have been reported.
