On Monday, July 29th 2020 at approximately 0646 hours, I responded to Dedham @ Nahanton St for a Hit & Run Accident. Upon arrival, I spoke with the operator of vehicle # 1, Jeremy Stolmeier. His vehicle (Mass Reg # 3914YA 2015 GMC COLOR BLACK) was traveling East on Nahanton St toward the intersection of Dedham St in the straight lane. Vehicle # 2 (Mass Commercial #S37782 RED GMC SIERRA) was being operated in the right turn only lane on Nahanton St toward the intersection of Dedham St. Jeremy stated as both vehicles approached the intersection of Dedham @ Nahanton St, vehicle number 2 merged into his lane and collided with the front ride side of his vehicle. Upon collision, Jeremy pulled over on Dedham St to inspect his damage and exchange information for the insurance companies. Jeremy stated Vehicle # 2 did not attempt to pull over and continued driving down Dedham St until Jeremy lost sight of him. Newton PD Units were informed of the license plate of vehicle # 2 and searched the area with negative results. Jeremy was unable to make out the operator of vehicle # 2. Vehicle # 2 came back registered to Consiglia Construction. I was able to make contact with Andrea Adams, the Massachusetts HR Generalist for Consiglia Construction. She plans on investigating within the company who the operator of the vehicle was, and tracking down the vehicle so it can be inspected for damage. This investigation is ongoing. There were no injuries and no tows required. Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): On Tuesday, June 30, 2020, I was contacted by the operator of MV2, Mark Finnegan (S90305291). Finnegan stated he was traveling from Needham into Newton while MV1 was in the lane to his left. Finnegan stated as they approached an upcoming intersection, MV1 merged into his travel lane. Finnegan stated as MV1 entered his lane it's front passenger side made contact with his rear driver side. Finnegan stated he felt something, but wasn't sure he was involved in a crash. Finnegan stated he later observed light scrapes to his rear driver side. I asked Finnegan why he did not stop if he believed he may have been involved in an crash. Finnegan stated he did not want to pull over because the other driver was being aggressive. Finnegan stated he reported the incident to his employer Consiglia Construction (owner of MV2). Finnegan stated he was not injured. Finnegan was advised and his information was added to this report to reflect him as the operator of MV2.
