Do we know if the gear failed to deploy or if it collapsed on landing?

From what I've read online it collapsed after landing.

I was on our employee website today and read that five crewmembers were also taken to the hospital. Must have been a bumpy ride.

There was nothing indicated before the landing

I think the injuries were just bumps etc from the slide and the hospital visit the cautious way they do thing nowadays

I was surprised by the press conference etc. as this sort of thing happens and they used to just get on with it.
