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.

Pilot was cleared to land on runway 31. Wind was from the right. As he landed and was slowing down the tower asked if he could make the next turn off at runway at runway 2/20. Replied he would try. As he slowed down and began to brake the aircraft began turning into the wind. He was unable to stop the turn and veered off the runway to the right. When the wheels left the pavement, the left wheel dug in and the aircraft nosed over. (Ground loop)
