Haven't seen anything on the downscreen for ALA lately, however we have had recent tyre change incidents in MZR (Mazar-el-Sherif, Afghanistan) and TBS (Tblisi, Georgia) but these were due to FOD.

If it was ups management it is highly likely but they will lie and cover it up or find a way to blame an IPA bubba.

Was that FOD on the runway/taxiway or an off road adventure? Wonder what would happen to a line guy that did that...
