Read the full NTSB narrative
On the landing rollout the airplane veered to the left. An attempt was made to correct the travel to the left; however, a turn was initiated and the right wheel broke free. The right landing gear axle dug into the ground, and the airplane ground looped after the right wing tip struck the runway. The right axle was examined and found to have preexisting multiple-origin fatigue fractures.
