The parking lot is accessible to the public and designed for vehicles to travel to and from the JCC. Owner of M/V 1 states she was parked on the side of the handicapped parking stall thinking it was ok to park there. She then ran in to the JCC for approximately one minute and when she returned she observed her driver's side front door was struck. I observed significant damage to the door frame and the door would not close. The owner called for a private tow to remove the vehicle. The staff at the JCC stated that a Martha Bixby gave her number and stated that she observed a black colored car with MA reg. # 934HH4 strike M/V 1. I attempted to call the number and left a message. The listing for that plate comes back to a 2010 Lexus ES350 color gray. I was then showed the video surveillance from the JCC's cameras and it shows an older white female exiting the lobby wearing a winter hat and carrying a bag with purple flower designs on it. She then walks through the lot and enters a gray Lexus ES350. The Lexus then starts backing out of the spot. The Lexus then continues backwards in to the other side of the parking stalls and strikes M/V 1 on the driver's side front door. The Lexus then pulls forward and leaves the scene without stopping or providing her information. As the Lexus is leaving, you can see there is a dent to the driver's side rear bumper. The video is not clear enough to see the plate on the Lexus or clearly see the operator's face. After, I located a number for the owner of the Lexus M/V 2 (Tania Lefman). I spoke to Lefman on the phone and she stated that she was backing out of the JCC parking lot at that time and felt a tiny bump to her rear end. She says that she could not stop in time due to the icy parking lot and then left the area thinking that nothing was wrong, it was only minor. I advised her there was significant damage to the other car. She was issued and mailed MA Uniform Citation T1441054 for Ch. 90/24/C Leaving the scene of property damage.","[""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Ice"", ""Phone"", ""Walk""]","[""Inattention""]",[19],/static/reports/1900000127.pdf,/static/images/1900000127.png,"333 Nahanton St, Newton, MA 02461, USA",42.2993233,-71.2036386,0,2020-10-06T16:43:19.931702

The parking lot is a public/thru way that motorists use to access the Star Market along with other businesses. The weather at the time was cloudy and rainy and the parking lot was saturated. Prior to my arrival, the pedestrian involved left the scene and did not want to speak to the officer nor wanted medical attention. Ofc. Claflin then cancelled Cataldo Ambulance. The pedestrian, Mary Alexander, left her information with a store employee prior to leaving. I spoke to the operator of MV # 1 (Joshua Randel MD Lic.# R534440603244) who stated that he was travelling through the third row of the Star Market parking lot at an appropriate speed. He was then attempting to make a left turn near the entrance/exit of the store. He says that there was a large white van parked in the end handicapped spot towards the left of him. He says the van was sticking out in the spot limiting his visibility. As he was half way through his left turn and coming around the corner, he was not able to see a pedestrian pushing a shopping carriage. He then struck the carriage that was being pushed by Mary Alexander. He further says that the cart jolted Ms. Alexander and she fell down to the ground. At the time, Alexander was walking through the lot near the store entrance heading back towards the parked cars. She was not in the crosswalk at the time which was approximately ten feet down from her location. After, I attempted to go to Ms. Alexander's residence to follow up. I spoke to her friend who was bringing up Alexander's groceries and she stated that she decided to go to Newton Wellesley Hospital for treatment. I then spoke to Ms. Alexander in the lobby of the hospital. She stated that she was exiting the store through the lot with her shopping carriage. She believes she was approximately eight feet away from the door when all of a sudden she only saw red coming at her. She believes MV # 1 was speeding at the time. I asked her if she was struck by the vehicle or was the shopping carriage only struck. She replied that she did not know and only remembers falling to the ground after. She sustained a large bruise to the inside palm area of her right hand and her left knee was swollen. Digital photos of the scene were taken and pictures of Ms. Alexander's injuries were taken at the hospital. As far as possible video surveillance, I was told that the Loss Prevention Department has to access the video. On 11/13/19 at approximately 14:20 hours, I went in to the Star Market and spoke to the manager, Nidal Rajeh, inquiring about possible video surveillance. He said there is coverage in the parking lot and he was able to show me the video. A copy of the video would have to be done by Loss Prevention which I requested. I observed at the 12:12pm mark in the video, MV # 1 was parked five spots up from the third row of the lot that he was exiting. I also observed a white transport van parked in the end handicapped spot mentioned by the operator but it was parked correctly and not limiting visibility. Next, MV # 1 backs out of the spot and drives forward going at a reasonable speed. The pedestrian (Alexander) has already exited the store with her carriage and is walking at an angle toward the same third row of parked cars. As the pedestrian is walking towards the direction of MV # 1, it appears that the pedestrian should be visible to him. MV # 1 then starts to take the left turn around the corner without slowing or stopping and strikes the carriage head on.

The parking lot is a thru way that the public use to enter/exit the lot or park there. On arrival at the same time with the Fire and Medics, I observed a female laying in the middle of the lot facing down on her back. A small red and gray CVS like type shopping carriage was knocked over and resting on it's side in front of the victim's head. The carriage was moved to the side in order to tend to the victim I also observed a black Honda Civic bearing MA reg.# 3741TW that was involved in the accident. The Honda was out of the parking spot resting approximately two feet away from the pedestrian's legs. I then spoke to the pedestrian identified as Darla Gipson in the rear of the ambulance. She sustained an abrasion to her front left shoulder and arm area which I observed. She also complained of left knee and elbow pain. She stated that she walking through the middle of the parking lot pushing the carriage by the door entrance in a westerly direction towards Chestnut Street. She states that she never saw a vehicle backing up and then she was suddenly struck and believes she was pushed underneath the vehicle. She was then transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital by Cataldo Ambulance. I then spoke to the operator of the Honda Civic identified as Linda Burke (MA S70320414). Ms. Burke was parked in the first spot to the right of the walkway that leads to the entrance/exit doorway. I asked her what occurred and she stated that she was backing her vehicle up to exit the parking lot when she looked behind her not seeing anything in sight. She then started backing up and struck the pedestrian without realizing it. She says the driver of a green cab and his female customer who were no longer on scene were yelling at her to stop her vehicle because the pedestrian was underneath it. She then stopped her vehicle. I observed minor scrapes to the entire rear bumper of the vehicle so it is unknown where it actually struck the pedestrian/carriage. I observed no obvious signs of damage to the carriage. It should be noted that Ms. Burke's Honda does not have a back up camera or back up sensors. There are no surveillance cameras to the apartment complex and no witnesses came forward for the accident.

2100000471,2021-06-28T13:46,2021-06-28,13:46,1321 WASHINGTON ST,EAST 1321 WASHINGTON ST,,0,10,1,1,"On Monday, June 28, 2021, while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I was entering my marked cruiser to leave the parking lot at the rear of 1321 Washington Street, Newton. The rear parking lot of the police station features a public right of access, but is restricted for authorized vehicle. There are signs posted at both entrances to the parking lot stating, ""RESTRICTED AREA Newton Police Department Authorized Vehicles Only Beyond This Point. As I entered my cruiser, I observed a red 2020 Jeep Wrangler (CT: AX89516) parked directly across from my cruiser facing Eastbound. This vehicle was not parked in a marked parking spot and was the last vehicle in the parking lot from the Cherry Street entrance on the North side of the lot. I observed that the front bumper of this vehicle made contact with the rear bumper area of a parked 2018 Tesla Model 3 (EV3617 ). I exited my vehicle and walked over to the vehicles to investigate if a crash had occurred. I observed a black male party sitting in the front passenger seat of the Jeep. The driver seat was vacant. The Jeep had its driver door and passenger door windows rolled down. The vehicle was not running and there were no keys in the ignition. As I approached the passenger side door, the male passenger appeared to be asleep and I could detect a moderate odor of alcoholic beverage emanating from the passenger seat area. I woke up the passenger and inquired where the driver of the vehicle was. The passenger identified himself by his Connecticut ID as Masengo Kabongo (#178372788). Mr. Kabongo stated his cousin Marcel was the operator of the vehicle and they had pulled into their current parking spot so Marcel could run an errand. Mr. Kabongo stated he did not know where his cousin was, and he could not locate his phone to contact his cousin. I asked Mr. Kabongo if he was aware he was parked in the Newton Police Station parking lot and that the vehicle he was sitting in crashed into an employee's vehicle parked in front of them. Mr. Kabongo stated he was not aware. Mr. Kabongo appeared to be very confused with the situation and continued to state he did not know why they were there and where his cousin was. The registered owner of the Tesla arrived and assessed the damage to his vehicle. I observed minor damage to the rear bumper area to MV2. There was also minor damage to the front bumper of MV1. The owner of MV2 was able to review footage of the crash from his vehicles exterior surveillance system. While viewing this video with him, I observed MV1 enter the Newton Police Department parking lot from Cherry Street and pull right behind MV2. MV1 appeared to be occupied by two black males at this time. One in the passenger seat and one in the driver seat. MV1's front bumper area is then observed crashing into the rear bumper area of MV2. The Newton Police Department IT Bureau was able to observe the crash from a surveillance camera affixed to the Newton Police Department maintenance garage (facing Cherry Street). The video captures MV1 entering the parking lot and crashing into the rear of MV2. A black male with light colored shorts and a dark T-shirt is observed exiting the driver side door and walking away from the area up Cherry Street (S) to Washington Street. I explained to Mr. Kabongo that the crash was captured on our surveillance system and that his cousin appeared to be the operator. Mr. Kabongo stated his cousin was currently in Newton District Court being arranged for a previous incident (Report #21027283). I looked up recent bookings for NPD and I observed a party matching the name Mr. Kabongo provided. On Friday, June 25, 2021. Mr. Marcel Mengue-Ngoumou was arrested and cited by the Newton Police Department for OUI (Subsequent Offense), Negligent Operation, Marked Lanes, Open Container, and Unlicensed Operation. I contacted the Newton Police Department Court Prosecutor, Officer Hagopian, to see of Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou was still present in Newton District Court. Officer Hagopian stated he contacted the court and Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou was waiting to be arraigned. Myself and Officer Hagopian responded to Newton District Court to try and speak with Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou. Upon entering Session 1 in NDC, the lone individual sitting in the gallery was a party matching the description of the party from the surveillance footage. I spoke with Assistant District Attorney Nathan Stetson who was present in the court room. I apprised him of the current incident that Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou was involved in and told him I was going to speak with him. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou at this time was sitting on the second to last bench on the left side of Session 1 as you walk into the courtroom. The exit to the courtroom was behind him. I approached Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou from the front of the courtroom and explained to him that I had just spoken to his cousin in the parking lot of the Newton Police Department. I explained to him the vehicle his cousin was sitting in had crashed into a parked vehicle belonging to a Newton Police Department employee. I explained to Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou that his cousin had identified him as the operator of the vehicle. I then asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou who was operating the vehicle when they were traveling to court today. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he was the operator. I asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou if he knew he had parked in the Newton Police Department parking lot. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he did not. I asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou if he knew he crashed into a parked vehicle in the parking lot. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he did not. I asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou if he knew he was not supposed to be operating a vehicle because of his incident from the other night and his license being suspended. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he did. I apprised ADA Stetson to my conversation with Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou was issued Massachusetts Uniform Citation 054528AB in hand for Chapter 90, Section 23(K) (Operating a MV after suspension, subsequent offense), and Chapter 90, Section 24 (Leaving the Scene of Property Damage). Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou knowingly crashed into MV2, parked his vehicle, took the keys from the ignition, and left the area with out making an effort to contact the owner of MV2. The 2020 Jeep Wrangler from the crash was removed from the Newton Police Department parking lot by Tody's towing. A towed MV form was completed and submitted.

On my arrival the fire and medics were speaking with the pedestrian that was struck. He identified himself as SEAN DAZET, DOB 04/3/81, #28 Ashmont Ave, Newton. He stated while walking on the sidewalk with his dog S/B on Nevada St he observed a vehicle backing out a driveway to #266 Nevada St. He said the vehicle was probably ten feet away from him when he yelled out to the driver but the vehicle was already on him. Mr DAZET unable to retreat out of the way put up his left hand to brace for the impact. Mr DAZET was then struck from the vehicles passenger side rear bumper. He was knocked back but never fell to the ground. Mr DAZET reported the vehicle backing out was going he estimated between 5/10 miles per hour prior to the crash. Mr DAZET reported to the medics he was experiencing left hip and left shoulder pain. However he signed a patient refusal. I spoke with the operator of involved vehicle identified as Patrick Alvarez. He stated while he was backing out from the driveway to #266 Nevada St his vehicle made contact with the pedestrian. He further stated he never saw the person walking past the driveway as he was backing up until he heard him yelling out. He immediately stopped his vehicle. The accident was a low impact crash. Mr DAZET was given the operator's information along with his insurance in case he had to seek further treatment for his non visible injuries. Finally Mr DAZET did indicate he probably will follow up with his primary care doctor on Monday. There was no damage to the involved vehicle.","[""Crash"", ""Ems"", ""Fire"", ""Ped"", ""Walk""]","[""Inattention""]",[19],/static/reports/2100000588.pdf,/static/images/2100000588.png,"266 Nevada St, Newton, MA 02460, USA",42.3600689,-71.207188,0,2021-08-19T16:27:06.211869

The weather at the time of the crash was cloudy and overcast. The road surface at the time of the crash was dry. The Newton Centre Municipal Parking Lot is open for public travel and use and is maintained by the City of Newton I spoke with the operator of the 2016 Audi 32 (MA: 4PL345) involved in the crash, Mr. Peter Schiller (S26414610). Mr. Schiller stated he entered the Newton Centre lot from Langley Road and made a right turn to enter the back row of parking stalls. Mr. Schiller stated he then took a left turn into the parking area to look for a spot. Mr. Schiller stated he did not see the pedestrian in the roadway in time and his vehicle's front end crashed into the pedestrian. Mr. Schiller estimated the crash happened right near the first car parked in the row closest to where he entered. I showed Mr. Schiller the believed area of impact was actually 3 car stalls in, and the crash occurred in the middle of the travel way. I asked Mr. Schiller if he has any medical conditions or takes any medication that would effect his ability to operator a motor vehicle. Mr. Schiller stated he does not. Mr. Schiller reported no injuries as a result of the crash. I observed very minor damage to the front hood/bumper/fender area of his vehicle from where the crash took place. I did observe soil covering the hood area. The injured pedestrian was carrying a plant with soil in the pot. I asked Mr. Schiller if he could recall where he made contact with the pedestrian or how the pedestrian ended up in front of his vehicle. Mr. Schiller stated he thought the injured pedestrian was running towards his car when the made his turn. I spoke with a witness that remained on scene, Mr. Nicholas Ryland. Mr. Ryland stated he was walking in the Newton Centre lot while pushing his daughter in her stroller. Mr. Ryland stated he observed MV1 enter the lot from Langley Road and took the right turn into the lot at a high rate of speed. Mr. Ryland stated he stopped with the stroller next to the first vehicle parked in the roadway where the last parking stalls begin. The MV1's driver side operated past Mr. Ryland's left side, took a left turn, and then Mr. Ryland stated he heard the crash. The crash took place in the middle of the roadway in between the parking stalls to the East and West of MV1. I responded to Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston to follow up with the pedestrian injured in the crash, Ms. Sophia Alexandridies (S49399467). Ms. Alexandridies was transported to the emergency department by Fallon Medics with multiple injuries including a head injury. Due to Ms. Alexandridies's injuries, I was unable to obtain a statement from her about the events of the crash. I spoke with Ms. Alexandridies's daughter, Christina, in the emergency department. Christina stated Ms. Alexandridies suffered a head injury, along with possible broken ribs and an injury to her left shoulder. Most of the injuries reported are on Ms. Alexandridies's left side, the presumed area of impact with the vehicle. Due to the circumstances of this crash, and Mr. Schiller being involved in another surchargeable crash on April 28, 2021, a Request for Immediate Threat License Suspension was submitted to the Registry of Motor Vehicles at DCUImmediateThreat@massmail.state.ma.us. Mr. Schiller is also being cited with Massachusetts Uniform Citation 119853AB for Newton City Ordinance Chapter 19, Section 75 (Fail To Use Care). On September 2, 2021, I contacted Mr. Schiller to provide him with additional information about the crash. Mr. Schiller stated he did not realize Ms. Alexandridies was injuried in the crash. Mr. Schiller also stated he has no recollection of being involved in a crash in April. Mr. Schiller was advised to contact his insurance company to inquire about his last crash. Photos were taken of the area and MV1 and submitted to the IT Bureau.

2100000844,2021-10-15T08:27,2021-10-15,08:27,139 BRANDEIS RD,WEST 139 BRANDEIS RD,,0,25,1,1,"On 10/19/21 at 08:30 hours, Sgt. Wade notified me that he received an email regarding a motor vehicle accident involving a pedestrian/student that occurred on 10/15/21 between the hours of 08:20am and 08:35am. The crash was never reported by the operator of the vehicle or the student/pedestrian. Approximately two hours later, the student went to the nurse's office seeking assistance for neck pain which is how the school became aware. This crash occurred in the marked crosswalk on Brandeis Road in front of Newton South High School which is located at 139 Brandeis Road. The weather at the time was 63 degrees with mostly cloudy and sunny conditions (wunderground.com). Brandeis Road is a two way roadway divided by an unprotected median that runs east and westbound. In front of the school there is a marked crosswalk in the roadway. There is also a one way driveway near the main entrance of the school with parking stalls and parents can drop their children off there on the right side of the driveway. The driveway then leads back out to Brandeis Road. Right after you exit the lot there is the above mentioned crosswalk to the left of the driveway which is very visible with nothing obstructing your view. On arrival, I spoke to the Dean of the school named Charlie Myette. Mr. Myette brought me to his office and started looking at the school's video surveillance system. He also requested that the student/pedestrian involved to report to his office. The student was identified as Tsukasa Iinishi. I asked Mr. Iinishi what had occurred and he stated that he was walking to school on the morning of 10/15/21. He says that he was wearing a pink hoody sweatshirt with gray shorts. He was walking through the woods which is across the street from the school which exit out to Brandeis Road. He says that he waited at the crosswalk and let two vehicles go westbound by him. He then thought it was clear to proceed and started walking. At the tail end of the crosswalk he was struck by a red colored Toyota Prius which exited left from the driveway and was on the left side of the roadway. He was struck on the left side of his body and he says that he used his left hand to brace himself against the hood and that's when the Prius stopped. He says that the operator of the Prius asked him if he was okay and he replied that he was. He then kept walking toward the school. The operator then continued on it's way without providing any information or notifying us. He described the operator as an Asian female with black hair approximately 40 to 50 yrs in age. During this time, Mr. Myette was able to find surveillance video of the crash. There are two camera angles. One shows the driveway along with the walkway of the school building. The other one shows the same but it also overlooks out in to Brandeis Road. The view of the road is partially blocked from the parked cars in the lot. The video shows a red colored Toyota Prius pull in to the driveway of the school. An Asian female student wearing a white long sleeve shirt with green lettering and dark colored jeans exits the passenger front of the Prius and eventually enters the school. The Prius then pulls out and goes toward the left side of the driveway around other vehicles waiting to exit. At 08:27 hours, the Prius pulls out angling towards the left side of the driveway going around other vehicles waiting to exit. The Prius then exits the lot on the left side (wrong side) of the roadway and makes contact with the pedestrian. In the video you cannot see the front hood area of the car, but you see Iinishi's torso bend towards the vehicle on impact. It shows the Prius stopped there for approximately ten seconds and then it drives away. In the video you are not able to see the registration plate number. Mr. Myette is going to send the photo of the student dropped off in the Prius to his staff to have her identified so I can follow up with the operator. On 10/21/21, I received an email from Mr. Myette stating that some of his staff has not come forward on the identification of the student. He stated that he would now send a message out to a larger group of staff to see if he gets a response. He also attempted to enhance the registration plate using the surveillance software but the plate is still too blurry to make out. On 10/25/21 at approximately 08:40 hours, I went over to Newton South High School to see if I could locate the red Toyota Prius involved in the crash. As I was driving on Olde Field Road approaching Brandeis Road near the school, I observed a red Prius approximately four cars ahead of me in heavy school traffic. Eventually, I observed the Prius pull in to the drop off driveway of the school and drop an Asian female student off. I identified her as the same student that got out of Prius prior to the past accident on 10/15/21. The operator was an Asian female which appeared to be in her late forties. After, the Prius exits the lot on to Brandeis Road and I flagged her down. I had her pull in to the parking lot across the street from the school. I asked her if she was involved in a accident with a student on the morning of 10/15/21 to which she replied that she was. She was identified as Xiaojin Liu through her MA Driver's License # S49033927. She was operating a 2010 Toyota Prius bearing MA reg.# 8JY630. I asked her what occurred and she stated that she was exiting the driveway of the school to turn left on to Brandeis Road. She says that she has a habit to think that no one is ever walking through the crosswalk and thought it was clear to proceed. She turned and then saw the student crossing and attempted to stop but was not able to in time. She then bumped the student with the front of her vehicle. She says that she stopped and asked the student if he was ok several times and he stated that he was. The student then walked away and she says that she did not know what else to do. I advised her that she should of gave her information to the student, notify the school, or call us to which she understood. I issued MA Uniform Citation # 172129AB to Ms. Liu for Ch. 90/24/A Leaving the scene of personal injury. After, I went inside the school and notified Mr. Myette of my findings. I asked him for the surveillance footage as I previously did in person and through email. He stated that he would put the video on a zip drive and notify me.","[""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Crosswalk"", ""Ped"", ""Pictures"", ""School"", ""Solar"", ""Walk""]","[""Wrong way"", ""Inattention""]","[8, 19]",/static/reports/2100000844.pdf,/static/images/2100000844.png,"139 Brandeis Rd, Newton, MA 02459, USA",42.3145561,-71.1876348,0,2021-11-11T16:27:08.593089

The road conditions were dry and Washington Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. Washington Street is a two way divided roadway with an unprotected median that runs in a easterly and westerly direction. At this location, there is a marked crosswalk with a walk signal along with traffic signals above in both directions. On arrival, the scene was cleared up and both parties were waiting in the parking lot of the Burke & Blackington Funeral Home at 1479 Washington Street. I spoke to the bicyclist involved who was identified as Rajmattie Thakoordeen. I asked her what occurred and she stated that she was attempting to cross Washington Street in a southerly direction on her electric bicycle. She says that she pushed for the crosswalk signal to activate and once it did she began riding her bicycle when she was suddenly struck by a silver Saab 93. She made it out in to the crosswalk approximately four feet when she was struck by the Saab which was travelling westbound in the right lane of Washington Street. She says that she was struck on the left side of her leg area. She complained of her left leg being sore near her knee area but signed a patient refusal with Fallon Ambulance declining transport. At the time, she was riding a Rad Power Bike Roadrunner 1 Plus that is silver and black in color. It is a Class 2 electric bicycle (750W) that can go up to 20 m.p.h. The only damage it sustained was scrapes to the outside left pedal. Ms. Thakoordeen was wearing black/gray/white pants, yellow reflective jacket, and a black bicycle helmet at the time. Next, I spoke to the operator of the Saab 93 bearing RI registration # FN193. He was identified as Nevan Hanumara with Rhode Island Driver's License # 9960501. He stated that he was travelling westbound on Washington Street in the right travel lane when he came around the curve and noticed the red light signal above in the last second. He says by the time he reacted and attempted to stop he went through the red light and made contact with the bicyclist in the crosswalk. He reported no injuries and no damage to his vehicle.

This area of Beacon Street is a public way maintained and owned by the City of Newton. The weather at the time was 81 degrees and partly cloudy (wunderground.com). The road conditions at the time were dry. On arrival, I spoke to the pedestrian involved in the crash identified as Thomas Jones. He stated the crash took place on 06/09/22 approximately between the hours of 14:05 and 14:10. He further stated that this occurred at 808 Beacon Street while he was crossing Beacon Street near the Bank of America. He says that he pushed the button to activate the crosswalk yellow flashing signal lights. It should be noted that I am familiar with this location and it does have a marked crosswalk on both sides of 808 Beacon Street with yellow flashing signals that can be activated. Once activated, he says a vehicle traveling eastbound on Beacon Street stopped for him. He then entered the crosswalk from the eastbound side of Beacon Street going across the street with his walking cane. He kept walking in to the westbound travel lane of Beacon Street when he was suddenly struck by a motor vehicle. Thomas could not provide what type or color of the vehicle. As a result, Thomas fell forward and was knocked down to the ground on both hands and knees. He also says that his right cheek and eyeglasses struck the pavement which damaged the lens to his glasses. He sustained a bruised (black and blue) right eye. He says approximately seven days later he started having neck pain to which he has been receiving medical attention for. He also states an upper right side tooth implant fell out of his mouth. After the crash, he states he was helped up by two unknown bystanders. An elderly white female who was operating the vehicle that struck him approached him. Thomas says that the female told him that she did not see him crossing the street as she was looking down and not up at the time. She provided him with her name of Jill Levin and her telephone number before leaving. Thomas states he was wearing gray colored khaki pants, sneakers, and a light blue t-shirt at the time of the crash. Next, I attempted to call the number for Jill Levin and left her a message to call me back. At approximately 14:45 hours on this date, Ms. Levin came in to NPD Headquarters and spoke to me. I asked her if she was involved in a accident during the month of June. She stated that there was an incident on a Thursday approximately three weeks ago in June of 2022 at approximately 14:30 hours. She says she was driving her 2013 Lexus 450RX color gray bearing MA reg. # 6RK464 westbound on Beacon Street near address number 808. She saw an older male crossing in the crosswalk and she says that she stopped for him. The male then suddenly fell down in front of her car. She states that she never struck him with her vehicle. She then got of her vehicle and asked him if he needed any assistance to which he replied that he was fine and did not need anything. He provided his name to her. She then provided her name and phone number on a piece of paper. I asked Ms. Levin why she would provide her information to Mr. Jones if no accident occurred. She replied that it was the right thing to do as far as checking on him and seeing if he needed any assistance. I then inquired why Mr. Jones would alledge that she stated to him on scene that you did not see him crossing the street. Also, that you were looking down and not up. Ms. Levin denied ever stating this to Jones. I then went outside and looked at her Lexus 450RX to check for any damage to the front end of the vehicle. I observed two small scratches to the passenger side front bumper which appear unrelated. The marks were indicative of white paint transfer from having contact with another vehicle. Ms. Levin did not know where the marks came from. I advised her that I would investigate this further and check to see if there is surveillance footage from the Bank of America or other source. After, I attempted to call Bank of America and could not reach anyone there. I will check the area and go to the bank on 07/08/22 during my next shift. On 07/08/22 at approximately 09:10 hours, I went up to 808 Beacon Street and observed no other surveillance cameras in the area. I went in to the Bank of America and spoke to the branch manager. He showed me the multiple camera angles they have, but none show out in to Beacon Street. As a result of this investigation and the statements made by both parties, I believe that Mr. Jones was struck by Ms. Levin's vehicle. The fact that Ms. Levin got out of her vehicle to check on Jones and provide her information to him even though she claims no accident took place is highly unlikely. Therefore, I am issuing Ms. Levin MA Uniform Citation # 507419AB for Chapter 89/11 Crosswalk Violation. The citation was mailed out on 07/08/22. I spoke to Ms. Levin on the phone explaining a citation was issued and mailed to her.","[""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Crosswalk"", ""Ped"", ""Phone"", ""Walk""]","[""Inattention""]",[19],/static/reports/22000604.pdf,/static/images/22000604.png,"808 Beacon St, Newton, MA 02459, USA",42.330038,-71.1938425,0,2022-07-26T04:28:24.800920
