Crash at Lake Hood on Labor Day

It mentions it in the ADN article about the cub out of McGrath, but I can't find anything else on this. Apparently a 170 crashed at Lake Hood today when they over ran the run way and flipped over. Anyone know anything about this?

And actually, I think I was just talking to the mechanic that helped put this plane together out of spare parts... awesome mechanic, great guy.

I saw the owner/pilot doing practice landings last week when it was super windy. Great landings, great control.
