And yes, according to the BBC the last transmission from the pilot was mayday and engine flame out. Curious as to what made it roll over so aggressively though?
Looked like a stall to me.

That roll doesn't necessarily indicate a loss of power in that engine.
Airplane was already coming down. Might just be going through the last stage of a stall.
Need to see much clearer pics. Was the prop feathered? Was it pilot input to avoid stuff on the ground? Ailerons don't appear to be at any significant angle, but again, need better pics.
With about 3000 feet of air below you.Most stalls like this are recoverable.
"Two dead on the ground" means that people in the taxi were killed.
** Edit **
That last video clearly shows the taxi driver getting out and checking a load he was carrying (hell of an attentive guy). He may not have had any passengers.
Who was killed on the ground??

The two people in the taxi were injured but are in stable condition after being taken to hospital, CNA said.
The front of your Van is smashed? You rear-ended a plane!Hell - I'm surprised anyone survived even with the river
Good god. Good thing there is video. Otherwise could you imagine trying to explain that to the insurance company?
"What part of 'A passenger plan hit my car while I was on the highway' do you not understand?!"
The pilot called mayday three times but should have worked the elevators instead of the radio maybe.
