This report will be forwarded to the Traffic Bureau for investigation. Traffic Bureau Update (Officer Gaudet): On Monday, March 22, 2021, I contacted Ms. Linda Nieman (Director of MGPO Dermatopathology Associates) inquiring about surveillance cameras on the property located at 2 Wells Avenue, Newton. Ms. Nieman stated she was unaware if the property had cameras but has sent and request to the building managers. I contacted the building manager Ms. Madison Hebb. Ms. Hebb stated she is not sure if the area of the building where the alleged crash took place has cameras, but she is looking into it and will contact me when she finds out. I contacted the Newton Fire Department to try and speak with Lt. Foli who was the incident commander for the call at 2 Wells Avenue (CAD 21012488). Lt. Foli is not back to duty until this Friday. I will attempt to make contact with him during his tour of duty at Station 10 at this time. If it is determined that a Newton Fire vehicle made contact with MV1, I will update this crash report. I spoke with Ms. Danielle Subramaniam, the owner of the damaged vehicle (MV1). Ms. Subramaniam stated she did not observe a Newton Fire vehicle hit her vehicle while they responded to 2 Wells Avenue the morning her vehicle was damage. Ms. Subramaniam stated she believes the only vehicles that were in the parking lot near her vehicle during her shift were Newton Fire vehicles. Ms. Subramaniam stated when she left work after her shift that morning, she observed new damage to her vehicle. On Tuesday, March 23, 2021, Miss Hebb updated me that the side of the property where the alleged incident took place does not have any surveillance cameras present. At this time, I am unable to conclude that a Newton Fire Department vehicle caused the damage to Ms. Subramaniam's vehicle.
