This pilot kind of just did.
That's what the media is summarizing. I'll stick with the official report until further facts are known.
Some have looked at the pictures of the damaged front engine blades and determined that the engines were running.
‘shut down’ and ‘lost power’ are not completely the same thing. Although they are close (and sometimes are the same).
