Allegiant MD-83 Elevator Failure

A report on Bloomberg today details an apparent elevator failure during takeoff on an Allegiant flight 483 from Las Vegas to Peroia, Illinois last week. It appears the plane started rotating early without pilot inputs, leading to a rejected take off. It sounds like possible shades of Air Alaska 261. Here is the link to the Bloomberg article.
