The weather at the time of the accident was cloudy and the road conditions were dry. Both streets are public ways in the City of Newton. Upon arrival I observed the victim identified as Glenn Butcher (MA OLN S36552335), inside the ambulance getting medical attention. Butcher was getting a bandage applied to his left leg and complained of leg, back and neck pain. Butcher appeared visibly shaken and in pain. Butcher stated he had the green traffic light and was travelling eastbound on Beacon Street crossing Centre Street and then continuing straight crossing Herrick Road. Butcher stated MV1 was travelling westbound on Beacon Street and took a left turn onto Herrick Road and collided into his bicycle. Butcher states upon impact he flipped over his bicycle and landed on the hood of MV1, before rolling off and landing on the ground. Butcher states he was wearing his helmet which was present. Butcher states his bicycle ended up partially under MV1. Butcher states the operator of MV1 pulled his vehicle to the side of the road and got out of his vehicle and spoke to several witnesses briefly. Butcher states the operator then left the scene without properly exchanging information and did not wait for the police to arrive. Butcher described the vehicle as a dark gray Honda, and described the operator as an older white male, 5'10 approximately 80 years old with white hair. Butcher was also able to provide an email address for another bicyclist who witnessed the accident. The witness left his information with Butcher prior to my arrival. Fire fighters on scene were able to get the registration number of the vehicle from the witness (MA REG 4CX148) and gave it to Officers on scene. Butcher was transported by Medic 1 to NWH with minor injuries. His bicycle had visible damage to the frame area and skid marks were present on both tires. 19 photographs of the scene and the bicycle were taken and sent to the IT dept. email. Officer Gabriel transported the bicycle to the station where it was logged into Property & Evidence for safekeeping. Dispatch was able to query the registration which came back to a gray, 2010 Honda Accord registered to a Matthew Sugarman (MA OLN S38601397), out of W. Roxbury. Dispatch contacted the Boston Police Dept. and had them send an Officer to the address to try to make contact with Sugarman. Sugarman was advised to contact the Newton Police Dept. and I was able to speak with him on the telephone. Sugarman states he was driving the vehicle today and was involved in an accident with a bicycle. Sugarman states he was travelling westbound on Beacon Street and was taking a left onto Centre Street not Herrick Road. While speaking with Sugarman he seemed confused as to his location during the accident and was adamant that he was turning left onto Centre Street and not Herrick Road. I advised Sugarman that I was on scene with the first responding Officers and the accident clearly occurred at the intersection of Beacon Street and Herrick Road based upon the final resting place of the bicycle. Sugarman went on to state that his vehicle was already turning when the bicycle struck his vehicle and he believed it was the bicyclists fault. I advised Sugarman it appears the bicyclist had the right of way since it was traveling straight and that because his vehicle was taking a left turn, he failed to yield for on coming traffic at an intersection. When asked why he did not stay at the scene of the accident Sugarman stated he got out of his vehicle and spoke to the bicyclist and he ""seemed okay"". Sugarman states he then left the scene while the victim was still sitting on the ground. I asked Sugarman if he had ever been involved in accident before and he replied ""no."" I advised Sugarman that I am currently looking at his drivers history and see nine accidents that he was involved in. Sugarman stated ""he has never been in accident like this before."" I then asked Sugarman what the law states when you are involved in an accident and he was not able to provide me with an answer. I advised him that the law states you must stop and exchange information before leaving the scene of an accident. Again he stated the bicyclist seemed okay and ""he had somewhere to be so he left."" Sugarman has an extensive drivers history including nine surchargeable accidents, reckless operation, two different charges of leaving the scene property damage and two immediate threat affidavits filed against him. I advised Sugarman that I will be mailing him a citation for Ch89 s8 Fail to yield to oncoming traffic, and Ch90 s24 Leaving the scene of personal injury. I also filed an immediate threat form with the registry. I emailed the witness using the information he provided to the Newton Fire Dept that was on scene and received a phone call back from the witness identified as Bruce Adams. See witness report for his statements. I contacted the Bank of America located at 808 Beacon Street in Newton, as they are the closest business to that intersection with video surveillance. I spoke with George Walsh (781-834-8275) who stated they do not have any working cameras on that side of the building to the bank. For this report the bicyclist is entered as a non-motorist for validation purposes. Witness Bruce Adams (MA OLN S96398108) stated that he was riding his bicycle travelling behind the victim about 100 feet away. Adams states he was watching the victim and had a clear view of him as he travelled behind him, through the green traffic light heading eastbound on Beacon Street. Adams stated he witnessed MV1 travelling westbound on Beacon Street take a sharp left turn onto Herrick Road which turns into Union Street. Adams stated that the vehicle turned left colliding into the bicycle and there was no possible way the bicyclist had time to stop to avoid the collision. Adams stated the victim flew over his handle bars and fell on top of MV1's hood and then landed on the ground. Adams stated the victim's bicycle was stuck under MV1's front bumper. Adams stated the operator of MV1 backed his vehicle up with the bicycle still attached to his vehicle bumper and pulled MV1 over to the side of the road. The operator then got out of his vehicle and walked up to the victim who was laying on the ground visibly in pain. Adams stated the operator asked the victim if he was okay to which the victim did not immediatley reply as he was visibly shaken up. Adams stated the operator then walked back to his vehicle and attempted to leave the scene and that is when Adams stood infront of MV1 to stop him from leaving the scene. Adams stated he then removed the bicycle from underneath the bumper of MV1 and placed it on the side of the road. Adams stated the operator got out of his vehicle again and walked up to the victim and asked him ""what do you want to do?"". Adams stated the victim did not respond and that is when the operator got back into his vehicle and drove away, leaving the scene before any emergency response arrived. Adams stated he was able to memorize MV1's registration and stayed with the victim until police, fire and medics arrived. He stated he gave the fire dept the registration and his contact information prior to leaving the scene.","[""Bike"", ""Bus"", ""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Ems"", ""Fire"", ""Helmet"", ""Phone"", ""Pictures"", ""Severe"", ""Walk""]","[""Failed to yield"", ""Inattention""]","[4, 19]",/static/reports/1900000286.pdf,/static/images/1900000286.png,"Beacon St & Herrick Rd, Newton, MA 02459, USA",42.3301102,-71.194468,0,2020-10-06T16:38:48.185130

She says that the vehicle slowed down after and then continued to leave the scene of the accident. She then took a photo of the above listed registration plate. I attempted to contact the owner of M/V # 2 (Jali Medical Inc Waltham, MA) and the receptionist was not able to provide any information at the time. I was told to call back the next day.

At the time, the road surface was dry and the weather was cloudy. Traffic was particulary heavy as there were several streets in the area still blocked off for the Walk for Hunger and there were participants still walking the route in the area. My attention was drawn to the intersection of Centre Street and Bowen Street as there was a motor vehicle travelling southbound on Centre Street with their left turn signal on attempting to take a left turn on to Gibbs Street. Gibbs Street was temporarily blocked to non-residential motorists as there were several pedestrians in the road crossing over Gibbs Street. As the motor vehicle attempted to turn, there were several pedestrians in the crosswalk crossing over Gibbs Street. The vehicle had stopped halfway into the northbound lane on Centre Street blocking on coming traffic. The operator appeared to realize Gibbs Street was blocked and attemped to turn the vehicle back into the southbound lane to continue southbound on Centre Street. As the vehicle turned back into the southbound traffic lane, the vehicles rear end collided with Officer Richard Clements, who was operating NPD motorcycle unit 533. Officer Clements was traveling southbound on Centre Street and was passing the vehicles in the southbound traffic lane which were currently all at a standstill. Officer Clements had his emergency lights activated as he was on his way to remove traffic cones from the street to open up all the traffic lanes along the event route. Officer Clements was working the City of Newton detail for the Walk for Hunger assigned to the motorcycle to assist with traffic. Officer Clements front wheel, left side of the motorcycle and left leg collided with the rear end of the motor vehicle. The impact of the crash caused him to fall off the left side of the motorcycle and land on the street face first. At this time I immediately ran from my post to Officer Clements location and radioed dispatch that a motorcycle officer was down and that I needed assistance. As I approached Officer Clements he was face down, unconcious and breathing. I was able to roll Officer Clements into the recovery position and at this time Officer Clements regained conciousness and was able to speak and stated "" What happened? What was that lady doing she turned right into me"". I advised Officer Clements that he had just been involved in an accident and to stay still and that help was on the way. The operator of the motor vehicle identified as Helen Leibner (S52717988) stopped her vehicle immediatley after the crash and got out of her vehicle to offer her assistance. I advised Helen and several other witnesses and bystanders who were now crowding around Officer Clements and I to back away from the scene and to not move any of the vehicles involved. Officer Selig arrived on scene and was able to help crowd control until further help arrived. Helen and all witnesses were advised to stand by for police to take their statements. While tending to Officer Clements he was disoriented and made several attempts to move his body to which I had to physically hold him still to prevent possible further injuries. While speaking with Officer Clements I noticed blood coming from the inside of his mouth. Officer Clements was in a noticeable amount of pain. He complained of head, back and left leg pain. Officer Clements was wearing a yellow ANSI certified Newton Police reflective jacket and a Newton Police issued motorcycle helmet. Once the paramedics and fire personnel arrived I was able to speak to the operator of the motor vehicle and several other witnesses. Helen stated she was traveling southbound on Centre Street operating her blue 2014 Audi A4 (MA REG 213BC9). Helen states she was attempting to take a left turn onto Gibbs Street and activated her left turn signal. Helen states she had stopped halfway into the northbound lane as several pedestrians were crossing Gibbs Street in the crosswalk at the time. Helen states after the pedestrians cleared she saw the traffic cones blocking the street and realized the street was closed. Helen states she turned her vehicle back into the southbound traffic lane and did not see Officer Clements or the motorcycle until impact. Helen was not injured and her motor vehicle sustained moderate rear end damage. Her motor vehicle was able to drive away from the scene. Witness Adron Gordon (S90357161) stated he was participating in the Walk for Hunger and had just crossed over Gibbs Street when the crash occured. He stated he witnessed the Officer on the motorcycle with the emergency lights on traveling southbound on Centre Street behind the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle stopped in traffic attempting to turn left onto Gibbs Street. He states then the vehicle made a slight turn back into the southbound traffic lane and the motorcycle collided with the rear end of the motor vehicle. He states the Officer then fell off the motorcycle landing in the middle of Centre Street. Witness Elizabeth McCarthy (S00242346) and Katherine Regan (S43486601) stated they both were in the same vehicle together stopped in traffic in the northbound lane of Centre Street just before the set of lights at Centre Street and Bowen Street. Both witnesses stated they do not remember if the driver of the motor vehicle had the turn signal on but they did see her attempt to turn onto Gibbs Street. They stated they also saw the motorcycle with emergency lights activated travel southbound on Centre Street approaching behind the vehicle. Witnesses state the motor vehicle then suddenly turned back into the southbound lane and the motorcycle collided with the passenger side tailight of the motor vehicle. Both witnesses state the motorcycle attemped to turn away from the vehicle to avoid the crash but was unable to do so. Witness Nina Wang (S39460985) stated she was parked on the southbound lane of Centre Street just prior to the crash scene. Nina states she was in her City of Newton DPW marked vehicle with the hazards on as she was working to assist with traffic safety for the Walk for Hunger. Nina states she witnessed the motorcycle travel southbound on Centre Street and pass the vehicles stopped in the traffic lane. Nina states the motorcycle passed the traffic using the left side and had the emergency lights activated. Nina states the motorcycle was just passing through the green light at Centre Street and Bowen Street when the motor vehicle that was stopped at the lights attempting to take a left turn onto Gibbs Street. Nina states the vehicle then abruptly jerked her car to the right and collided with the motorcycles left side. Nina states she heard a loud crash and witnessed the Officer fall off the motorcycle and land face first onto the street. The motorcycle's final resting place was on its left side approximately two feet away from where Officer Clements was located. The motorcycle sustained moderate damage to its left side, including the front wheel well and undercarriage. The motorcycle left scuff marks on the street which were measured and photographed. Several photographs of the scene and damage to both vehicles were taken and submitted to the IT Bureau. The motorcycle was towed by Todys. Centre Street and Bowen Street are both public ways maintained by the City of Newton. The injured motorcyclist, Officer Clements, was transported to Saint Elizabeth Hospital with fire fighters on board. I was able to follow up with Officer Clements on the phone the next day who was admitted over night at the hospital. Officer Clements stated he has no recollection of the accident and can only remember driving down Centre Street to begin to pick up cones to open up all lanes of traffic. Officer Clements stated he suffered a brain bleed, head, back, left foot and right thumb injuries. A Massachusetts Uniform Citation was issued and mailed to Helen for Chapter 89 Section 7A, failure to yield to emergency vehicle, police motorcycle.","[""Citation"", ""Crash"", ""Crosswalk"", ""Fire"", ""Helmet"", ""Hospital"", ""Moderate"", ""Night"", ""Ped"", ""Phone"", ""Pictures"", ""Solar"", ""Walk""]","[""Inattention""]",[19],/static/reports/1900000458.pdf,/static/images/1900000458.png,"Bowen St & Centre St, Newton, MA 02459, USA",42.3336185,-71.193432,0,2020-10-06T16:46:27.600758

The weather at the time of the crash was overcast. The road surface where the crash took place was dry. Brookline Street and Hartman Road are both public ways maintained by the City of Newton. On arrival, the injured pedestrian was in the process of being transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital with minor injuries. I spoke with the operator of the vehicle involved in the crash, Menachem Uminer (S43996134). Uminer stated he was operating his vehicle on Brookline Street (S) towards Hartman Road. Uminer stated he was stopped in traffic on Brookline Street prior to the crash. Uminer stated the vehicle in front of him proceeded to travel straight from it's stopped position and he then began to follow the traffic on Brookline Street. Uminer stated he did not see anyone in the vicinity of his vehicle as he began to travel straight from his stopped position. Uminer stated as he was traveling by Hartman Road, the front passenger side area of his vehicle made contact with a pedestrian on the right side of Brookline Street at Hartman Road. Uminer stated he did not see this party until after they were struck and he then proceeded to pull his vehicle over. Uminer stated he was operating his vehicle at a very low speed at the time the collision took place. After speaking with Uminer, I observed the white 2017 GMC Yukon (MA: 9NX525) involved in the crash parked on Brookline Street (S) just past Hartman Road. Uminer stated the vehicle had been moved after the collision took place. I observed no obvious damage to the body of the vehicle on the front passenger side area where the collision took place. The front passenger door mirror was folded inward towards the door. Uminer stated he believes the front passenger door mirror was the point of contact between his vehicle and the pedestrian. I spoke with a witness to the crash, Ashley Garcia (S94193596). Garcia stated she was attempting to cross Brookline Street at Spaulding Lane. Garcia stated she entered the marked crosswalk and was a few steps into Brookline Street when a black colored vehicle traveling on Brookline Street (N) slammed on its brakes near the crosswalk. Garcia stated she looked to her left at the vehicle and then heard a thud to the right from the area where the crossing guard was standing near Hartman Road. Garcia stated she looked over and saw a crossing guard on the roadway on Brookline Street (S) at Hartman Road. The injured pedestrian involved in the crash is Cassandra Alexander (S23636307). Alexander is a crossing guard for the City of Newton and is assigned to the intersection of Brookline Street and Hartman Road for the Memorial Spaulding school crossings. This crash occurred while Alexander was performing her official duties. Alexander was wearing her department issued yellow reflective jacket at the time of the crash. I spoke with Alexander at Newton Wellesley Hospital where she was being treated for her injuries. Alexander stated she was performing her duties as a crossing guard at the intersection of Brookline Street and Hartman Road. Alexander stated she had just finished crossing two pedestrians in the marked crosswalk on Hartman Road when observed a pedestrian enter the crosswalk on Brookline Street at Spaulding Lane. Alexander stated she began to enter the intersection of Brookline Street at Hartman Road with her hands up and her department issued yellow reflective jacket on in an effort to stop traffic in the area to allow the pedestrian in the marked crosswalk safely cross. Alexander stated she was struck on her left side by a passing vehicle. Alexander stated she did not see the vehicle and fell to the roadway. Alexander stated as she was falling to the roadway she extended her right arm in an effort to brace her fall. Alexander stated she had injuries to her arms and legs and was sore from the collision. I spoke with a second witness to the crash via telephone, Anand Vaidya (S43996134). Vaidya stated he was stopped in traffic behind MV1 on Brookline Street (Southbound). Vaidya stated he observed the vehicle in front of MV1 proceed straight on Brookline Street after being stopped in traffic. Vaidya stated he then observed MV1 proceed straight on Brookline Street at Hartman Road at a low rate of speed. Vaidya estimated the speed of MV1 at this time to be 5 miles per hour. Vaidya stated a crossing guard was on the right side of the roadway on Brookline Street at Hartman Road wearing a yellow and black reflective jacket and snow pants. Vaidya stated the crossing guard had her back towards him and MV1, and extended her arm out to stop traffic. Vaidya stated at this time MV1 rolled by the crossing guard at a low rate of speed and the front right fender area of the vehicle hit the left rear leg/lower back area of the crossing guard. Vaidya stated the crossing guard bounced off of the car and fell to the roadway. Vaidya stated he believes MV1 was unaware he hit the crossing guard and observed the vehicle travel another 10 feet until it came to stop on Brookline Street. Vaidya stated the crossing guard was not in a marked crosswalk at the time of the crash.

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.
