Here's what I see in wheels coming off pickups/vans/ SUVs. Some are just the tire/wheel due to loose/ broken/ missing lug nuts. When looking at the wheel you will see the lug nut holes bored out.
The other type is a tire/wheel is still attached to the axle. I understand that is due to the wheel bearing failure. I think the last is only on non floating axles. Both of those will happen as the vehicle is moving.
I did not see the wheel that is missing to see if the axle is or not on it.
