Translated from Danish. I have no prior experience with Danish but there are parallels with Dutch and German. So the translation may be slightly off. On Airliners.net much the same is being reported.

Plane glides of runway in Tirstrup
Tirstrup airport, near the city of Aarhus, was closed monday early in the afternoon after a plane skid of the runway.
The B737-800 operated by Ryanair on the Stansted route. At the time of the incident it was snowing. However, the runway had been cleaned up.
All passengers where bussed to the terminal with no injuries.
The airport will remain closed for an as yet unknown time.
An investigation will be started to the cause of the overrun.
It will be interesting to see what happens. No doubt the tabloids in the UK will have a field day. MOL has in the past stated that the only thing he feared could kill his company is a crash. Of course this is merely an incident, but the press will no doubt overact as they always do when the Ryanair does something that at first glance may seem odd.

As if to prove my point a bmi 321 has gone off the runway at Belfast City this evening, marking at least the 3rd runway/taxiway excursion in as many days.

Much more here on PPrune, including a photo: the aircraft was apparently turning to backtrack on the runway and the nosewheel went off the pavement on to the grass.

Far worse has happened to them before, this probably wont even make the papers, stuff has rolled off taxiways and runway practicaly every day this week. Two S360s collided over Milwaukee yesterday and that hasnt even made this forum! Its just that time of year…

True, but Ryanair is a controversial airline that a lot of people do not like. This means that the press will want to take the most out of it. Tragic though it may be, the collision of the S360s interests noone here because it is halfway across the world.
