 Did the Fokker roll back onto the runway? 
 
No. After landing, he was instructed by the tower to leave the runway 
and taxi to the apron via taxiway xy. Other than one would expect, this 
particular taxiway is not controlled by Ground but by Tower, because it 
crosses another runway. The Fokker crew was not aware of this but 
thought "well, we're on the taxiway, let's switch to Ground". Ground 
wasn't aware of this, because they don't care what's on this taxyway, 
and Tower couldn't contact them anymore. 
 
Of course the Fokker should never have entered that crossing runway 
without permission in the first place. 
 
For details and an airport map look at the link I posted earlier.
