Watching CNN and its live, tail is gone and both wings separated, top of the fuselage looks to be gone as well, no casualty list yet.

Looks like both wings still attached.

no tail though.

Roof has been burned through from back of wings to the forward most doors.

Sorry the close up view now shows the wings intact, the tail is missing and one of the engines looks like it separated form the wing and is resting beside the fuselage. There are survivors and some pictures on twitter

Hope it wasn't one of these.....

There was a view at the approach end of the runway, there is a considerable amount of debris form the seawall to runway threshold and it looks like the tail section may have struck the seawall, and the firefighters are combing the approach end of the runaway at this time. there was also a shot of several busses with people getting on them. There is a triage area set up on the parallel runway.

The horizontal and vertical stabilizers are on the displaced threshold of 28L.

That would be my guess; tail struck the seawall.
