Question Air France runway excursion in Libreville

It seems the Paris-Libreville flight left the runway on landing this morning. Anybody got any info/confirmation?

The Air France A330 apparently got a strong crosswind gust when it landed at 6 AM in Libreville. Casualties: two tires and five runway lights... And the airplane had to be towed out of the mud...

Who cares, you say? Well, it did get to the headlines of some local newspapers in Libreville...
