Since the caliper is aft and due to the rotation, the wheel could have jumped under the caliper and then exited. Was there any wheel tub/fender damage?
I'm not liking the metallurgy on those hubs.

Correct, the only thing keeping the wheel from departing was the caliper. He did have some light damage to the rotor, caliper, and parking brake assembly.
