737 misses winglet

5th September 737-800 misses one winglet during approach
Incident: Aeromexico B738 at Mexico City on Sep 5th 2012, dropped winglet
Does anyone know results of investigation? I cannot find any information.
Thank you in advance.

It's not really a big deal - unless you happened to be under it when it fell off.

I dont think so. Because winglet dropped in result of severe vibration. And it might be a kind of aileron flutter.
