Seeking information ZD614 accident

Has an accident summary ever been made public for this one ( the one that ended up in the river Yeo ) ?

Searched MAAS website with no success.

@ JagRigger,

Ran off the end of the runway on landing at Yeovilton, Somerset. The pilot ejected just before the aircraft slid into the river Yeo. After recovery it went into the Accident Investigation Unit here and was then transferred to St. Athan. With the announcement during 2002 that the Sea Harrier fleet would be withdrawn from service by 2006 it was not repaired

Not a complete answer, but the links below might help: -

Back then it was rumoured to be the RAF method of disposing of the SHAR, one aircraft at a time.
