Narrative:
While on approach the aircraft appeared to be slightly to the right of the centerline but the pilot decided to continue the landing. The pilot banked to the left to get back in the centerline and slightly banked to the right to prevent a continuation of the bank to the left. Upon this bank to the right the aircraft violently rolled to the right and struck its wingtip against the ground. After the aircraft touched safely, the pilot was unable to stop and the aircraft overran the runway. The aircraft struck a few runway lights.
