1900000222,2019-03-01T17:37,2019-03-01,17:37,1354 WASHINGTON ST,EAST 1354 WASHINGTON ST,,0,25,1,1,"On 3/1/19 while working N493, myself and N492 Officer Selig were sent to the area of 1354 Washington St for a motor vehicle accident with reported injuries. On arrival, I spoke to Matthew Digregorio DOB7/2/74 ( hereby referred to as operator #1) who was standing on the sidewalk next to MA reg 134TR9 (vehicle #1 ). Vehicle #1 had significant damage to the front and right quarter panels. It was straddled between the travel lanes and did not have the keys in the ignition. It was immediately apparent that operator #1 suffered an injury to his head, as there was a moderate amount of blood and small pieces of glass stuck in his forehead area. I observed operator #1 to be unsteady on his feet, have bloodshot eyes and slurred speech. I could detect a moderate odor of alchoholic beverage coming from operator #1 as I was approaching him, which was apparent from about an arms length away (it should be noted that medics were already en route to the scene at this time). Prior to the medics arrival, I asked operator #1 for a brief synopsis of what transpired. Operator #1 stated that he had just left Paddy's Pub and was driving westbound on Hunter St (which is approximately 1/8 mile from our location) when he collided head on with vehicle #2. Vehicle #2 was not immediately visible upon police arrival, however was pointed out as being located at the intersection of Hunter and Putnam St. I asked operator #1 where he was heading, as Hunter St is a back road not directly in the vicinity of Paddy's. Operator #1 could not answer the question and also remained silent when I asked him how much alcohol he had consumed this evening. At this time the medics arrived on scene. I asked operator #1 for the car keys to reliquish to the tow truck operator, which is standard operating practice. Operator #1 reached into his pocket and then provided me with the keys. Due to concern over operator #1's obvious head trauma, he was then transported to NWH to be evaluated while the investigation continued on scene. Two other parties approached myself and Officer Selig. One was the operator of vehicle #2, MA reg 1RD999. Operator #2 is identified as Luke Ferdinands DOB 5/11/80. The other party who approached is identified as Douglas Dasilva-Pimenta DOB 6/2/86 (Dasilva-Pimenta will now be referred to as operator #3). Operator #2 states that he was taking a right onto Hunter St from Putnam St, when he observed vehicle #1 on the wrong side of the road approaching him head on. Operator #2 states vehicle #1 then collided head on with him, took a right onto Putnam St, and continued onto the Washington St overpass near 1354 Washington St. Operator #3 states he was inside of #5 Hunter St when he heard a loud crash coming from outside. He looked out the window and saw vehicle #1 traveling at a high rate of speed on Hunter St towards Putnam St. Operator #3 observed damage to the right side of his parked vehicle (now referred to as vehicle #3) MA reg 7CAK80. He immediately got in his vehicle and proceeded to follow vehicle #1, which then crashed into vehicle #2 head on. Operator #1 did not stop until it was obvious that operator #3 was following close behind. This ultimately landed vehicle #1 at it's final location near 1354 Washington St. Vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 were not driveable and were towed to Tody's. It should be noted that there was a passenger in vehicle #2 at the time of the collision. Airbags were deployed and medics checked out both operator and passenger. Both declined transport. The passenger is identified as Elizabeth Ferdinands DOB 5/22/53.Ferdinands' version of events coincide with that of operator #2. Upon speaking with Officer Selig it was learned that operator #1 dropped his cell phone several times as he was holding it on scene. Both Officer Selig and operators #2 and #3 observed this. Operators #2 and #3 both expressed concern over the obvious odor of alcohol eminating from operator #1, and the fact that he was unsteady on his feet. I responded to NWH to follow up with operator #1 however he did not wish to speak further. He did express concern over the well being of all parties involved. Operator #1 was issued in hand the following citations: T1268426 - 90/24 OUI Alcohol, 90/24 Leaving the Scene (property damage, vehicle #2), and 90/24 Leaving the Scene (property damage, vehicle #3). T1268425 - 89/4a Marked Lanes violation.

Upon my arrival I spoke with the operator of MV1(MA REG RT91EL) who stated she was traveling westbound on Watertown street and ""blacked out"" and could not recall how the accident happened. I asked what she meant about blacking out, and she stated she thought she had a panic attack and may have passed out. The operator of MV1 stated she takes Lorazepam for panic attacks, but has never had one like this. MV1 had heavy front end damage and airbag deployment, specifically to the driver's side. The operator was uninjured. I then spoke with the operator of MV2(RI COM 81082) who stated he was traveling eastbound on Watertown street, and observed MV1 crossing over the center line.

Wade of the Newton Police Traffic Bureau at 0032 hours. Sgt. Wade stated a serious motor vehicle crash occurred on Washington Street in Newton and it involved a City of Newton marked police cruiser (N494). Sgt. Wade stated Officer Katelyn Pohlman and the operator of the other vehicle involved were transported to the hospital with potential serious injuries. I was requested by Sgt. Wade to respond to the scene from my residence and investigate the crash further. On arrival at the scene, I observed the two vehicles involved in the crash to be a 2015 Ford Explorer (MA: 586RT7) and Newton Police marked unit N494 (MA MVN: MP494B). These vehicles were observed disabled on the roadway in front of 612 Washington Street, Newton. There was a large debris field comprised of various parts from both vehicles on the roadway and in the parking lot of 612 Washington Street. The road surface at the time of my arrival was wet and there was light rain falling. Sgt. Wade reported that at the time of the crash the road was completely dry and it had not started to rain yet. Washington Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. The portion of Washington Street where the crash took place supports two- way travel, Eastbound and Westbound. There are two travel lanes in both directions. Travel direction is divided by a double yellow line in the middle of the roadway. The area is well lit and features numerous light poles illuminating the roadway. The closest intersection to this location is Crafts Street just west of the crash location. MV1 (MA: 586RT7) had substantial front-end damage, especially to its front passenger side and was inoperable. I observed this vehicle at its final rest on the roadway with its front end facing Northbound on Washington Street just over the double yellow line in the middle of the roadway. The front and side impact airbags had deployed inside the vehicle as a result of the collision. I did not observe anything hanging inside the vehicle that would have obstructed the view of the operator prior to the collision. MV1 was removed from the roadway by Tody's Towing. MV2 (MA MVN: MP494B) had substantial front end damage and was inoperable. The impact from the collision caused the vehicle to spin uncontrolled and the final rest, with the front end of the vehicle facing the front entrance to the 7-11 (S). The vehicle's final rest was on the sidewalk in front of 612 Washington Street. The front and side impact airbags had deployed inside the vehicle as a result of the collision. I did not observe anything hanging inside the vehicle that would have obstructed the view of the operator prior to the collision. MV2 was removed from the roadway by Tody's Towing. The Officer involved in the crash is Officer Katelyn Pohlman. Officer Pohlman stated she was operating Newton Police marked unit N494 on Washington Street (E) past Crafts Street. Officer Pohlman stated as she was operating her vehicle past 612 Washington Street (7-11), a vehicle in the westbound lane of Washington Street abruptly crossed the double yellow line in the roadway and entered her travel lane head-on. Officer Pohlman stated she did not have an opportunity to react to the vehicle in front of her and the front passenger side of MV1 crashed into the front end of her vehicle (MV2). Officer Pohlman sustained injuries to her left forehead area and both of her arms. Officer Pohlman was later transported to Brigham and Women's Hospital for evaluation and was released a short time later. It was reported to me by numerous Officers on scene that Officer Pohlman exited her cruiser after the crash and rather than tend to her own injuries, she focused her efforts on rendering aid to the operator of the other vehicle involved. Officer Pohlman found the operator of the other vehicle lying on the floor of the front passenger seat under the dash. Officer Pohlman rendered aid to the operator while waiting for Newton Medics to arrive. Officer Pohlman was also assisted in rendering aid to the other operator by Officer Conary and Officer Larson. Officer Larson reported that while interacting with the operator of MV1, the operator repeated numerous times, ""Is she ok? Is she ok?"". Officer Larson also stated the operator said to him ""I feel bad because I was texting on my phone"". Officer Larson stated the operator of MV1 works for the Department of Corrections Special Operations Unit and has Department issues equipment inside the vehicle. The following items were placed into Support Services, locker 9 for safekeeping by Officer Larson: 1 Gray Pelican Gun Case, 1 Black Gun Belt, 1 Taser, 1 Can OC Spray, 15 (50) Round Cases Of Ammunition. The operator of MV1 (MA: 586RT7) was identified as Mr. David Cafarelli (S16965940). Mr. Cafarelli was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for a potential head injury before my arrival. I spoke with Mr. Cafarelli at Newton Wellesley Hospital in the Emergency Room with Sgt. Wade. Mr. Cafarelli's mother and father were present when we spoke with him. Mr. Cafarelli stated he was out with friends before the crash and was driving to the 7-11 on Washington Street. Mr. Cafarelli admitted that before the crash, he had his cell phone in his hand while he was operating his vehicle. Mr. Cafarelli stated he does not remember if he was texting or changing the music on his phone at the time of the crash. Mr. Cafarelli stated he looked up and was unable to avoid the vehicle (N494) directly in front of him. Mr. Cafarelli stated he also does not believe he applied his brakes before the collision. When we spoke with Mr. Cafarelli in the Emergency Room, he was still waiting for test results to determine the severity of his injuries. On Monday, August 23, 2021, Sgt. Wade responded to 612 Washington Street, Newton to retrieve surveillance footage from the 7-11 of the crash. 7-11 stated their outside surveillance system was not operating correctly, but they were able to capture some of the incident from a camera inside the store. I observed this footage. MV1 is observed traveling on Washington Street (W) in the westbound travel lane in front of the storefront. MV1's driver side is then observed traveling over the double yellow line in the middle of the roadway and into the eastbound lane of Washington Street. A head on collision ensues and MV1 can be seen rotating counterclockwise in the roadway backwards to its final rest location on Washington Street. MV2 is then observed at its final rest position on the sidewalk facing southbound in front of the 7-11 storefront. After completing my investigation, I have surmised the following. Mr. Cafarelli was operating his 2015 Ford Explorer (MA: 586RT7) in the area of 612 Washington Street, Newton. Mr. Cafarelli was holding his cell phone in his hand while operating his vehicle. Mr. Cafarelli became distracted while he was operating his vehicle due to his attention being focused on his cell phone. Mr. Cafarelli traveled over the double yellow line from the westbound lane of Washington Street and entered the eastbound lane of Washington Street. Newton Police marked unit N494 was traveling on Washington Street (E) in the area of 612 Washington Street at this time. Mr. Cafarelli's vehicle crashed into the front end of Newton Police marked unit N494. Mr. Cafarelli was not wearing a seatbelt and as a result of the impact from the crash, he was ejected from the driver seat and his final rest inside the vehicle was in the flood of the front passenger seat. As a result of my investigation, Mr. Cafarelli was issued Massachusetts Uniform Citation for Chapter 90, Section 13B (Hands-Free Violation), Chapter 89, Section 4a (Marked Lanes Violation), and Chapter 90, Section 13a (Seat Belt Violation).

Brooks (N505) responded to the area of 196 Tremont St (public way in the City of Newton) for a report of a motor vehicle accident. Dispatch reported that the reporting party's vehicle was hit while it was parked in front of his address, and the operator of the other vehicle exchanged partial information and then left the scene. Upon arrival, I observed a blue Honda Accord bearing Massachusetts Registration: 1TDF63 (Vehicle 1) parked on the side of the road, blocking the driveway to 196 Tremont St. The vehicle had heavy damage along the driver's side of the vehicle and back left tire was pushed into the wheel well. In front of 190 Tremont St, I also observed a black BMW 528 bearing Massachusetts Registration: 1FDB38 ( Vehicle 2) with heavy damage along the passenger side of the vehicle and the front right wheel was completely detached from the axel. All the airbags in the vehicle were deployed, and it appeared that vehicle 2 was traveling Eastbound on Tremont St when it crashed into vehicle 1 at an angle. It should be noted that there were multiple deep scratches/dents on the hood, roof, and drivers side panels of vehicle 2 that were not consistent with the crash that just occurred; which indicates the operator was in multiple accidents prior to this one. Pro-tech Towing was also on scene to tow vehicle 2. I then spoke to the owner of vehicle 1, Ryan Desrosiers, who stated that his vehicle was parked on the side of the road when he heard a crash outside at approximately 2345hrs. Mr. Desrosiers stated when he went outside, he discovered his vehicle pushed in front of his driveway, approximately 10-15 feet from where he parked it, and the operator of vehicle 2 standing outside. Mr. Desrosiers stated when he spoke to the operator, he smelled like alcohol and had slurred speech. The operator, later identified as, Benjamin Wadsworth, told Mr. Desrosiers that he was ""coming from in town"" and ""probably should have taken a Lyft tonight."" When Mr. Desrosiers tried to exchange information, Mr. Wadsworth took Mr. Desrosiers' phone number and then texted him a link to a generic RMV website. Mr. Desrosiers then said Mr. Wadsworth called a tow company for his vehicle and insisted on paying out of pocket tomorrow for the damage to Mr. Desrosiers' vehicle but told him if he wanted he could call his insurance company. According to Mr. Desrosiers, Mr. Wadsworth then walked Eastbound on Tremont St towards Brighton. It should be noted that Mr. Wadsworth did not provide his name, address, or insurance company to Mr. Desrosiers prior to leaving. I had dispatch run a query on vehicle 2 (MA Reg: 1FDB38) and it came back registered to Benjamin Wadsworth out of 13 Charmane Rd East Falmouth, Massachusetts. While speaking with Mr. Desrosiers, the driver of the tow truck called Mr. Wadsworth cell phone to notify him that he was not going to be towing his vehicle. I was then able to get on the phone and speak with him, and he identified himself as Benjamin Wadsworth and admitted to being involved in the accident that just occurred. When I asked Mr. Wadsworth his location because I was concerned for his well-being due to the severity of the crash and airbag deployment, he stated he was at his apartment in Brighton. When I asked for the address of his apartment, he refused to give it to me and stated he was fine. I stated to Mr. Wadsworth that because he only gave limited information and then left the area that he could be charged with Leaving the scene of a collision, to which he replied, ""I am in law school you can see the books in the back of my car, you can't do that, you have my plate, he can look that information online."" When asked about having an address out of Falmouth, Mr. Wadsworth stated he has two addresses because he attends school in the area. It should be noted that while speaking with Mr. Wadsworth on the phone, his speech was slurred, slow, and dilerbrate, consistent with being intoxicated. Tody's towing arrived on scene and took possession of Mr. Wadsworth's vehicle. I then tried a second time to speak with Mr. Wadsworth via a phone call to get him to agree to a well-being check. Mr. Wadsworth, again, refused to provide me with his address in Brighton, insisting he was fine. Although Mr. Wadsworth sounded intoxicated, he did not sound injured and was coherent when answering my questions. Due to Benjamin Wadsworth operating recklessly, knowingly getting into a collision causing property damage, not providing his name, not providing his address, and leaving the scene, I am issuing him Massachusetts Uniformed Citation T1445620 for the following: MGL.
