Upon arrival, I observed a utility pole broken in half, wires hanging in the street, and also a transformer on the ground. Fire and medics responded. Other police units were able to block the street from traffic. I spoke to witness, HARRIS, who stated that she was traveling Southbound on Adam Street when she saw MV1 in the wrong lane traveling toward her at a high rate of speed. HARRIS stated that MV1 then turned into the utility pole located outside of 109. MV1 took out the pole, side swiped MV2 and then hit MV3 head on. Operator of MV1 stated that he was traveling Northbound on Adam Street when he sneezed. At this point, he said his eyes were off the road and the next thing he could remember was being in the parking lot of 109 Adam Street after the accident. There was significant damage to the front of MV1 with airbag deployment. Operator of MV1 was checked out by the medics for a head injury and signed a refusal. Operator of MV1 was asked if he had consumed any alcohol or taken any medication today and he declined. Officer Spinney (N491) asked if he was willing to do a Field Sobriety Test, and he stated yes. Operator of MV1 did not show any signs of intoxication. Operator of MV2 stated that he had parked his car outside of 109 Adam Street and was sitting in the driver seat when he was hit by MV1 and also the utility pole. Operator of MV2 was able to exit his car. He was evaluated by the medics and signed a refusal. MV2 has significant damage to the right side and windshield. MV3 was parked in the lot of 109 Adam Street facing Southbound. MV1 hit MV3 head on. There was significant damage to MV3 front end. The electric meter attached to 109 Adam Street was ripped off the house. There are no signs of damage to the house to report at this time. MV1 was towed by Tody's. Eversource arrived on scene. Operator of MV1 was issued a citation for marked lanes violation. Pictures were taken of the scene and will be submitted to IT.","[""Airbag"", ""Alcohol"", ""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Fire"", ""Pictures"", ""Speed""]","[""Wrong way""]",[8],/static/reports/1900000496.pdf,/static/images/1900000496.png,"109 Adams St, Newton, MA 02458, USA",42.3604346,-71.2033917,0,2020-10-06T16:46:08.973290
2100000428,2021-06-14T13:58,2021-06-14,13:58,248 PARK STREET,NORTH 248 PARK STREET,,0,25,0,0,"On Monday, June 14, 2021 while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to the intersection of Park Street and Alba Circle for a report of a motor vehicle crash involving a pedestrian. The weather at the time of the crash was overcast with light rain. The road surface at the location of the crash was wet. Park Street and Alba Circle are public ways maintained by the City of Newton. Park Street supports two way travel (N, S) with no marked divider to indicate travel lanes. I spoke with the operator of the 2013 Nissan Juke (MA: 137LX7) involved in the crash, Ms. Cynthia Cowan (S59504510). Ms. Cowan stated she was traveling on Park Street (N) towards Alba Circle. Ms. Cowan stated ahead of her there was a large landscaping truck (MA CON: X1515, 2001 Ford DRWSUP) parked on the right side of the roadway and blocking her lane of travel. Ms. Cowan stated she looked ahead of the landscaping truck and did not see any traffic coming towards her in the opposite lane. Ms. Cowan stated she entered the opposite lane of travel (S) to pass the parked landscaping truck and continue down Park Street. Ms. Cowan stated as she was traveling past the front of the landscaping truck, she crashed into a standing mower that had entered the roadway. Ms. Cowan stated the mower entered the roadway from in front of the parked landscaping truck. Ms. Cowan stated because of her obstructed view from the landscaping truck, she did not see the mower until it was too late. Ms. Cowan stated she stopped her vehicle and observed the operator of the mower on the sidewalk in front of 248 Park Street. I observed damage to the front passenger fender/bumper/wheel area with airbag deployment from the driver seat. I also observed yellow paint transfer on the front bumper area consistant with the color of the mower involved. MV1 was removed from the roadway by Tody's Towing. Ms. Cowan signed a patient refusal with Newton Medics and walked home from the crash site. The other party involved in the crash is a landscaper for 4 Seasons Services. I observed a yellow Wright Standing Mower 52"" resting on the side of the roadway in the Northbound lane. The mower has significant damage to its front portion. 4 Seasons Services removed the mower from the roadway. A worker on scene estimated the value of the mower to be $11,000.00. Photos were taken of the mower, MV1, and the roadway and submited to the IT Bureau. The injured party, Mr. Louis Padilla-Gonzalez (S32927586), was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for a left shoulder injury and an injury to the left side of his face. I spoke with Mr. Padilla-Gonzalez in the emergency room with the assitance of a language translation service set up by the nursing staff there. Mr. Padilla-Gonzalez stated he was operating the standing mower and left the sidewalk into the road. Mr. Padilla-Gonzalez stated he drove by the front of the parked landscaping truck and when he got into the street he saw a car coming towards him fast. Mr. Padilla-Gonzalez stated he tried to reverse the mower and get out of the way, but he could not because of the wet roadway. Mr. Padilla-Gonzalez stated he was hit by MV1 and thrown from the mower to the street. After speaking with Ms. Cowan and Mr. Padilla-Gonzalez, it appears both parties had their view of the roadway obstructed due to where the 4 Seasons Services landscaping truck (MA CON: X1515) was parked. I did not observe any posted parking restrictions where the vehicle was parked, but due to the size of the vehicle it did take up the entire Northbound travel lane in front of 248 Park Street. The location of the parked landscaping truck and the wet road surface contributed to the crash. There were no witnesses to the crash.","[""Airbag"", ""Crash"", ""Hospital"", ""Ped"", ""Pictures"", ""Rain"", ""Walk""]","[""Wrong way""]",[8],/static/reports/2100000428.pdf,/static/images/2100000428.png,"248 Park St, Newton, MA 02458, USA",42.3484979,-71.1826571,0,2021-06-16T16:27:05.958211
