It is not speculation that there was a collision on the runway. The two most likely causes are pilot error, or ATC error. There is a small chance that the brakes on the coast guard plane failed and that it rolled onto the runway; however, both the pilot and ATC should have noticed that long before the A350 collided with it.

As for statistics, the FAA reports 1760 runway incursions in FY23, 1730 in FY22 and 1574 in FY21. That is a number that should be going down, not up.

Since March there have been others, including a collision between two private jets.
