Officer Nardelli and I responded to the area as dispatch was giving updates of tractor trailer information and direction of travel. I traveled west on Watertown Street from Chapel Street and observed a car carrier traveling west approx four blocks west ahead of me. I activated my emergency lights and made a motor vehicle stop at Watertown Street at Nevada Street. I observed a trailer NY reg # BH32997 which dispatch confirmed this reg was the one involved in the crash. The name of the comapny is DIVERISIFIED AUTOMOTIVE INC of 6 RAMLAND ROAD ORANGEBURG N.Y. 10962 N.Y. apportioned tractor reg 17833PB / trailer NY reg BH32997, the driver was later identified as MA lic # SA0310636 Januel Ortiz d.o.b. 5-17-2001 of 111 Country Club BLVD apt. 201 Worcester MA 01605. Officer Panica confirmed the crash site location and damage to a City of Newton Traffic signal/footings/ sidewalk/retaining wall/landscape. Officer Panica was also approached by witness Erin McGinty of 233 Jackson Road(see statement below) I approached the car carrier on the passenger side and observed fresh damage on the trailer that would be consistent with striking the traffic signal. I then approached the driver of the car carrier Mr. Ortiz. I advised him of the crash and he stated he was traveling west on Washington Street and turned right (north) onto Jackson Road. He stated while turning his trailer struck the traffic signal knocking it over. I asked him why didn't he stop to assess damage or notify anyone. He stated he was looking for a safe place to pull over. He stated he continued north on Jackson Road then left onto Pearl Street and then left onto Watertown Street to drop off vehicles at the 445 Watertown Street,which is where I Pulled him over. I advised him I am familiar with the travel route he went and the length of Jackson Street is not a Heavily traveled area since the school is closed from the crash site, and he traveled approx a mile and a half until I pulled him over. I advised him I would be doing a level III inspection and advising him of my findings. Witness Ms. McGinty stated she heard the crash and observed the car carrier with NY reg # BH32997 have contact with the traffic signal and continue to travel north on Jackson Street without stopping.

While on scene, I was contacted by passing motorist, Witness 1, who stated that they were traveling South Bound on Oak. St., when they observed the offending tractor/trailer attempt to make a right hand turn from Chestnut St. (East Bound) onto Oak St. (South Bound), striking the traffic light. Witness 1 additionally provided me with a picture of said trailer (ME Semi Plate: 273605C (Trailer #6673), which has been attached to this report. I contacted Amber, the company which is registered as leasing the trailer and spoke with their Risk Assessment Member, Elizabeth, who stated she would attempt to determine who the driver was. Additionally, I left a message for Mike of Attic RRG, the insurance company for the trailer. At the conclusion of writing this report, I am still awaiting a call from both. ***update*** As of June 13, 2021, all attempts to identify the operator of the tractor/trailer have been met with negative results. Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): I have made several attempts to contact the registered owner of the trailer involved in this crash over the past week with a negative result. I contacted the Maine Motor Transport Association that handle the registrations for trailers in the state. An agent there stated the trailer is a long term rental to a company called Mesilla Valley Transportation (MVT) Leasing out of New Mexico. I contacted MVT and spoke with Angelica from their Risk Management. Angelica was able to identify the operator of the vehicle as Mr. Hayes Hall Jr. Anglica stated Mr. Hall was in the area making a delivery on the date of the crash. Angelica also stated Mr. Hall did not report being involed in a crash on June 7, 2021. I contacted Mr. Hall to inquire about the crash. Mr. Hall stated he was operating that vehicle on the date of the crash. Mr. Hall stated he was unaware he hit the light pole, and if he knew he made contact with it he would have stopped and reported it. Mr. Hall's information was added to this report to reflect his as the operator of MV1. Mr. Hall reported no new damage to his vehicle that could have resulted from crash with the light pole. It is conceivable that due the to size for the vehicle Mr. Hall was driving, he was unaware of the pole he hit. Mr. Hall will not be cited for leaving the scene of the crash.","[""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Pictures""]","[""Improper turn""]",[6],/static/reports/2100000408.pdf,/static/images/2100000408.png,"Oak St & Chestnut St, Newton, MA 02464, USA",42.309428,-71.2205421,0,2021-06-30T16:27:06.287574
