I don't think anyone can say what exactly happened until more information comes out but I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often with what's going on at the moment.

This is hardly the sort of incident to be making jokes about.

I thought the suggestion that it could be the DOM and relatives thereof, was intended as a joke. Sorry. I didn't realise that it was a serious comment.
