On Tuesday November 30, 2021 at approx. 0857 hours I responded to the area of Chestnut Street and Ellis Street for a report of a two motor vehicle crash with unknown injuries. Upon arrival on scene Medics and Fire personnel were rendering aid to all operators / occupants, due to the location of the crash additional units were requested on scene to divert traffic. Operator of vehicle one Ms. Kim, stated she stopped at the stop sign. She stated her vision was obstructed with a truck that was parked on the northeast corner of Chestnut Street / Winter Street.. She stated she accelerated forward looking south and north. She stated she was going through the intersection when vehicle two traveling southbound had struck her vehicle. Operator of vehicle two Mr. Lafaiete-Gheringer stated he was traveling south on Chestnut Street when vehicle one traveled west from Winter Street through the intersection and struck his vehicle. After Medic evaluations on Ms. Kim and her child Ariela Seok, she signed patient refusal's with no reported injuries at this time. Mr. Lafaiete-Gheringer was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for a minor laceration on his head due to impact, non life threatening. Todys towing of 1354 Washington Street arrived on scene and towed both vehicles to their tow lot. Towed inventory sheets were completed. All parties advised of the process and I advised them my contact information. After reviewing the crash site area, possible obstructions and a safer way for vehicular and pedestrian traffic, I am recommending a stop sign be placed on the southbound lane Chestnut Street just prior to Ellis Street. In addition Mr. Lafaiete-Gheringer has an active registration without a Massachusetts license with an effective date of August 16, 2021. He currently has an active California License, with an California address. Therefore I am issuing and mailing Mr. Lafaiete-Gheringer MA citation number T1445575(warning) for Chapter 90 Section 26a Failure to notify registry of his license address change.
