From the sound of things, there was little time for a ejection. Have yet
to hear of what might be a cause.

They have Bang Seats?

Yes, but the ones on the lower deck are a bit of a problem in the
event of a low altitude equipment failure or pilot error...

All crew stations are pressurized, heated, and air-conditioned. In the
event of an emergency, means for crew escape is provided by upward
ejection seats for those on the upper deck and downward ejection seats
for those on the lower deck.
