From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry’s history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.

What happened

The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

On 12/16/2010 a deice truck struck the number one engine nose cowl resulting in the following damage: approximate one inch diameter hole at the two to three o'clock position of the inlet and a half inch wide gouge that ran the full length of the cowl from behind the inlet to where it bolts to the engine. Damage was beyond limits of the maintenance and structural repair manuals. Maintenance removed and replaced the nose cowl. The engine and pylon were inspected with no defects noted.
