Spain's ATC reported the crew rejected takeoff for safety reasons, the brakes overheated and locked up.
A passenger reported the aircraft suddenly veered right, then the brakes came on really hard. Fire crews were unable to cool the brakes down. They disembarked about an hour later and were bussed to the terminal.
The airport remained closed for about 4.5 hours until the aircraft could be towed off the runway.
