No, there were no articles at all.
I think that the media just didn't know about it as the plane was back on the runway within 25 minutes ...

I haven't found an official report yet, maybe because the investigation is still running ... I don't know.

The pilot that was at the controls of the aircraft when the incident happened has been fired. He barely got through the simulator-test and was given a last chance on the aircraft.
The airline is now looking to get the aircraft repaired as the entire landinggear has to be replaced !!! 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O

So far the info ...

looks like a costly evaluation error to me

This pictures shows the touch-down. You can clearly see there's something wrong with the nose-gear. Probably resulting that little off-road trip.
The plane is still standing at EBOS.

Well at MST they are currently braking up 2 ex SAS Fokker 50's.
Maybe they can use one of their landing gears to fix this one.

i think it`s a hydraulic system failor,

Maybe the pilot in command held the nosewheel-steering too much to the right iso centered ...
