Narrative:
Beechcraft 58 Baron N886TS was involved in a runway excursion after landing at the New Bight Airport (MYCB), Cat Island, Bahamas.

The pilot stated that he observed his landing gear indication lights all confirming gears down and locked.
However, upon touchdown and during rolling out, the left main gear collapsed, leading to a loss of directional control. As a result of the gear collapse a runway excursion occurred with the aircraft coming to rest in bushes approximately 94 ft. from the runway’s edge.
Significant damages to the left wing, both propellers and possibly engines, the nose and main gear, and lower fuselage of the aircraft were reported. No injuries were reported.
