Delta 757-200 Catches on Fire

A Delta 757-200 has caught on fire upon landing at ATL. The flight was doing a routine scheduled flight from Atlanta-Quito but right after takeoff there was a mechanical issue that appeared to be a hydraulic fault. The 752 returned to Atlanta and the landing gear caught on fire because the brakes were locked. The 752 was towed back to the gate and was extinguished.
