Did the port overwing slide mis-deploy? It appears to be stuck behind the engine. Shouldn't it have opened to the rear and down the trailing edge of the wing?

Yes,apparently the second section failed to inflate and about a dozen passengers who came through this exit onto the wing were told by firecrew to go back into the cabin and use an alternative door!! Thankfully there were only 2 minor injuries overall.
