The failure happened when stage separation didn't happen. The first stage was trying to boost back and couldn't.

With the engines out it may not have been able to get the right angle to separate, and was fighting to. I would think the boost back program wouldn't initiate until separation. |

Stage 0 tested and working. Stack cleared pad and made it past max Q so no show stopper stopper structural issues there. Flight termination systems also tested and working. Good first launch.

They have a lot of work to do to sort that out. |
