Astraeus STN - Iceland engine fail

From a passenger on board an Astraeus B737-300 last night, operating for Iceland Express from STN to somewhere in Iceland:

After takeoff, while still climbing, popping sound and flames from the left (number 1) engine. RPM decreased and aircraft yawed. Cabin crew did PA, and aircraft landed safely in STN.

Anyone else hear anything?
