Unhappy RV-6A Crash at FRH, pilot ok

I heard last night that an RV6A crashed at my home airport. I talked to the manager and he said the blades are bent back and some damage to one of the wings. He said it looks as if nose gear collapse. He also said a gust of wind may have picked the plane up during flare. Still don't know all the details. Going out tonight to look at it. Pilot is okay. Thank the Lord. Will post further if any more information becomes available.
