crash_reports: 22000564

On Saturday 06/25/22 at approximately 1508 hours while assigned to patrol sector n498 operating marked unit n503 I was dispatched to the area of Rt 9 Eastbound and Walnut Street (Both public ways in the City of Newton) for a report of a 2 car motor vehicle crash. Upon arrival I spoke with the operator,(BROWNE Sarah Ann) of MV#1(MA REG 514HH4) who states that she was stopped at the stop sign at the intersection of Rt 9 Eastbound. She was attempting to enter Rt 9 Eastbound waiting for traffic to clear when she was struck in the rear by motor vehicle#2. After speaking with BROWNE I spoke with the operator, (REED Ethyn) of MV#2, (NY REG JNZ6912) who states he was behind MV#1 also attempting to get on to Rt 9 Eastbound. He states he saw MV#1 pull forward and at that point he looked over his left shoulder to see if traffic was clear. He saw a clearing and began to accelerate forward not realizing that MV#1 had not yet entered traffic, striking MV#1 in the rear. While on scene REED gave me registration papers that were not matching his vehicle, therefore, I queried the license plate, REED's drivers license and VIN number. REED's license plate, (NY REG JNZ6912) came back to a 1999 Brown Toyota Camry, however this license plate was attached to a 2011 White Honda Civic belonging to Luis Rios. Subsequently I queried the Vin number on the vehicle (2HGFA1F88BH525771) Which came back to the vehicle on scene, a 2011 White Honda Civic owned by REED with a suspended registration due to invalid proof of insurance. Finally I queried REED's California Drivers License (Y2616596) which came back as EXPIRED with a status of "Withdrawn Pending PDPS Clearance". While I was conducting the investigation Tody's was en route to tow the vehicle. Due to the damage from the crash the vehicle was inoperable. I informed REED the vehicle was being towed due to the damage and for not having insurance. I explained to REED I would further investigate the status of his license and the vehicle and Mail him the citation once my investigation was complete. At this time I am issuing Massachusetts Uniform Citations T3044941 and T3044942 for the following offenses: C90 S23 Attaching Registration Plates C90 S34J Operating a MV without Insurance C90 S9 Operating Unregistered MV C90 S10 Operating without a License I also confiscated the New York Registration plate, JNZ6912, and placed it into property and evidence locker #1. Vehicle was towed by Tody's Towing. Also see CC# 22022600
