No official word, but the communication antenna on the tower appears to be damaged [1]. Seems likely that played a role.

Strange how it is leaning to one side but otherwise looks just fine. I'd have thought that anything with enough force to push it over like that would have caused other more visible damage. Pretty grainy video though.
