Narrative:

Broken window on ground. After landing we were informed that there had been some complaints from a building close to the airport, that it had suffered some broken windows as our aircraft went by, not sure where this building was in relation to the approach to uio. We were asked repeatedly if we had flown low on the approach. Our approach was standard with no deviations from prescribed procedures and we had maintained the glide path or a little higher during the entire approach, including the transition to the PAPI at minimums. We had maintained PAPI all the way to the runway, power management was also normal. The crew including some of the flight attendants, were asked the same questions and everybody was surprised by this report since the flight had been normal. The WX was visual with no other reported incidents on the flight.
