Video of the aircraft on takeoff showing flaming engine.
The engine fell off. That same engine had maintenance done on it, delaying the flight by two hours.
NTSB will likely be having a long talk with the maintenance team

"
Most people would not be writing the article without checking with someone knowledgeable first."
It wasn't an article.
It was a post from Nick Sortor on X.
He states the original information came from the mayor, who misspoke.
The speed at which breaking information happens on X, coupled with a local politician who (according to Sortor) misspoke, it's not difficult to see how gal./lbs jet fuel might get confused. Not the first time, won't be the last time.
Sortor posted his correction less than an hour later. Not sure how quickly the major announced their correction.

"
...but a news outlet reporting aviation stories..."
It wasn't a news outlet.
It was a post on X that says the origin of that gal/lbs mix-up came from the mayor during an early press conference. The information was corrected less than an hour later.

UPS cargo maintenance employee, Joe Schmo: “Hey, any of you guys seen my 1” Snap-Off box wrench?”
NTSB Investigator: “We found this 1” Snap-Off box wrench on the runway, not far from where the number 1 inlet cowling impacted.”
