## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS GROUNDED: ENGINE #1 HAD COMPRESSOR STALLS  WHICH WAS THEN FOLLOWED BY UN-COMMANDED ENGINE SHUTDOWN. PASSENGER WITNESSED FLAMES FROM THE TAIL PIPE AND # 1 ENGINE FIRE BOTTLE WAS DISCHARGED. AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED AND THE AIRCRAFT DIVERTED GJT WHERE IT LANDED SAFELY.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE FAN WAS FROZEN AND THERE WAS METAL DEBRIS IN THE TAIL PIPE. A BORESCOPE INSPECTION OF THE ENGINE REVEALED EXTENSIVE INTERNAL DAMAGE. **SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT WILL BE SUBMITTED** (OPEN)
