Narrative:The pilot said that during the landing roll on a dirt county road, the left main tire hit something and 'blew out.' The airplane veered left, encountered a ditch, and rotated perpendicular to the road. The left main landing gear broke off, and the left wing and the bottom of the fuselage were damaged.
Probable Cause: The pilot's selection of an unsuitable landing area. Factors associated with the accident were an unknown object in the landing area, a failure of a main landing gear tire, and the pilot's inadvertent ground loop/swerve.
