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.

During taxi operations the pilot misjudged the width of taxiway e and turned the aircraft sharply. The right main gear exited the pavement and became stuck in the mud. A tug was brought in to tow the aircraft out of the mud and to the ramp. There was no damage to the aircraft or surrounding taxiway environment.
