Doesn't read right as that sounds like it ran out of fuel. Think it was just low on fuel and from the description one engine had a fuel leak.
Fuel starvation occurs when the fuel pressure is dropped before reaching the combustor...same thing can happen in a car that gets a fuel leak...engine isnt getting proper fuel delivery and is therefore starved of fuel
