What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) N6367X, a CE-402 operated by transportations systems, inc., taxied south on taxiway "k" at Salt Lake City International Airport after landing on runway 17, and exiting on kilo 5 taxiway, at approximately 1915 MST, on Friday 12/13/2002. The CE-402'S left landing light struck the top of the left wing of N8501Q, an "alarus" (CH2-T) causing minor damage. The alarus had stopped on the right side of the taxiway to allow the CE-402 to pass. Both persons on board the alarus stated that the 402 continued on the taxiway centerline and did not move to the right side of the taxiway. The flight instructor aboard the alarus stated that she turned off the aircraft landing light and strobe lights (the aircraft anti-collision system), leaving the position lights on so as not to blind the other pilot. The CE-402 pilot stated that he thought the other aircraft had turned off the taxiway to wait for him to pass.
