Additional information from the local papers.

The over-run is reported as occurring at 1749 local (1049 UTC), which is after the significant weather highlighted in Sunnyjohn's post and according to the Metars, 07L would have had a slight tailwind component. The weather on Sunday afternoon was typical early-rainy-season with light scattered thunder showers, moving from west to east.

07L/25R is 10,000' long with 1000' stopways at either end, elevation 33'.
