BA287 Aborted Take Off

Starting this one here as it isn't really isn't a major news item.

I heard that a BA B747-436 (ops BA287) aborted take off today due a person climbing up into the undercarriage. This person was spotted by another pilot.

Any truth in this? If so, what was the outcome?

Egg, this subject features in reporting points. I think it would have been very difficult to climb into the wheel well during the takoff run but just as well they aborted.
