Did this event really happen ? I couldn’t find anything with an online search.

You'll be surprised how many incidents are being swept under the rug.

Not much to sweep under the rug with this one. There was no damage to the airplane.

They list the flight # and tail #. But as already mentioned it wasn't a big enough deal to make the news. I suspect the pilots had some explaining to do if they realized they'd hit some lights and still continued the takeoff.
