Unusual malfunction .30 Luger case

Sorry to revive an older thread, but this happened to me just today with the same Fiocchi ammo. Nothing looked or sounded different firing, but the toggle locked back despite having 7 rounds left, and the back end of the casing which sheared off was still hooked on the extractor. I managed to move the front portion of the casing a few millimeters using patches, but haven't had any luck getting it all the way out.
