PP-VPJ being towed from terminal 1 to terminal 2 after having disembarked all the passengers . 10 seconds after this shot was taken , there were two loud "cracking" sounds and she ground to an immediate halt in the curve of the taxiway . Something broke - either on the tow truck or the nose gear . Anyway minutes later the fire department arrived and started cleaning up leaking fluids . The complete taxiway was blocked as a result of this .
