Exclamation AAE 727 Loses Main Wheel Ex ML?

Just heard a story about a night freight 727 Ex Melbourne last night that lost a main wheel on rotate. Apparently the rogue tyre ran through 3 rows of cyclone fencing and a couple of paddocks before stopping. The crew continued on to Perth and the first any one new of the event was when the ground handlers on arrival said to the Captain....."Hey Mate! We think you might be missing something."

Has anyone else heard about this or have any other details
