Narrative:
On March 16th, 2020 at approximately 09:38 hours while working N491 I responded to a report of two car MV crash at the intersection of Newtonville Ave at Lewis Terrace. On my arrival I observed a large while box truck(vehicle1 ) with passenger side front end damage parked on Newtonville Ave just west of Lewis Terr. The other involved vehicle(#2) was located inside the construction site at #255 Newtonville Ave. I spoke with the operator of the Truck(veh#1) who reported that he was driving W/B on Newtonville Ave when vehicle #2 pulled out into the intersection from north side of Lewis Terr striking the front passenger side of his truck. The impact from the crash caused vehicle #2 off the road, through a chain link fence and into the construction sit to #255 Newtonville Ave before coming to a stop. There were numerous construction worker on the job site but miraculously none of them were struck by vehicle #2 as it crashed through the fence onto the site. I later spoke with the operator of vehicle #2 who was not injured. he stated he was driving S/B on Lewis Terr. and was entering onto Newtonville Ave when he was struck by vehicle #1. Operator couldn't remember if he looked for oncoming traffic prior to entering the intersection. I spoke with the son of Mr Goldfinger(operator #2) who had arrived on scene and he assured me his father would no longer be driving again. I cited Mr Goldfinger for failing to yield/stop(c89/c9) at an intersection. Ticket # t1444075 Todys towed vehicle#2 from scene and there were no reported injuries. Witness stated she was behind vehicle #2 on Lewis Terr.and observed him slowly enter out into the intersection without coming to a complete stop. Pictures taken by Construction foreman. All insurance information and drivers info from operator #2 was taken by him also.
