On 08/06/19 at 12:34 hours, I responded to Industrial Place by The Lakeshore Learning Store at the request of Newton Police Officer Justin March who witnessed an accident in the parking lot of 300 Needham Street. Officer March was working a road construction detail at the time in the City of Newton. He states that at approximately 12:20 hours he observed MV1 exiting the parking lot of 300 Needham Street( a drive way to a building that the public has access to). There is an island in the middle that separates the entrance and exit of the lot as it goes out to Needham Street. As MV1 was exiting, he drove up on the island and pushed two large stone builders out of place. There was also damage to numerous different flowers planted in the ground. MV1 then exited the lot and went eastbound on Needham Street. Officer March then followed in his vehicle and kept beeping his horn to alert the driver to stop. The operator turned on to Industrial Place and pulled over. Ofc. March attempted to speak to the operator, Gelvin Perez-Ramirez but there was a language barrier. Next, Ofc. Calderon responded and assisted with Spanish translation. He asked the operator what occurred and he stated that he never saw the island. Due to the fact that the operator left the scene of the accident and never reported it, he was issued MA Uniform Citation # T1445351 for Ch. 90/24/C.

On 08/13/19 at 14:53 hours, I responded to a hit and run motor vehicle accident located at 244 Needham Street. The operator of MV1 states she was parked in a parking spot to the right of the Splash business at 244 Needham Street. The parking spot is located on Charlemont Street. After parking, she was sitting in her motor vehicle when she heard a bump to her driver's side rear end from MV2 backing up from a parking spot across from her. She says the operator of MV2 turned and looked at her and kept proceeding (NB) on Charlemont towards Needham Street. She then exited her vehicle to try and get the operator's attention to no avail. She took a photo of MV2 which was a black Toyota Highlander bearing MA reg.# R85045. She described the operator as a white female in her forties with possibly dark curly hair. I observed minor paint damage and scratches to the driver's side rear quarter panel area. The operator is unsure if that damage is from the accident. The owner of MV2, Steven Masterson has a residential address of 40 Wild Acres Rd in North Attleboro, MA and a mailing address of 34 Central Street Foxborough, MA. A telephone search revealed a phone number of (269)857-7814 for him out of Aiken, SC and the Foxborough address but the number is not in service.

She stated that she was unaware that she struck MV1 and saw the other operator looking at her but thought nothing of it. Due to the accident being very minor or possibly no damage at all, no further action will be taken. Masterson was provided with the other operator's information.

Duarte stated he received a call from his employer stating Kevin Coston had called for him and he was provided with Coston's phone number. Duarte stated he texted Coston to find out what happened that morning. Duarte showed me a text message exchange from August 23, 2019 at 9:03 A.M. between himself and a party listed as "Kevin Whole". In the text messages, Duarte stated he is the driver of the van and that his supervisor called him. The other party responded and stated "Talk to the police and my lawyer".

ON 10-22-19 AT APPROX. 1210HRS. WHILE WORKING N492 I TOOK A REPORT FOR HIT AND RUN ACCIDENT. UPON ARRIVAL AT 647 WASHINGTON ST. ( WHOLE FOODS PARKING LOT ) I MET THE OWNER OF VEHICLE #1. OWNER STATES SOMETIME BETWEEN 1130-1210HRS. WHILE SHE WAS SHOPPING AT WHOLE FOODS SOMEONE HIT THE RIGHT REAR OF HER VEHICLE CAUSING SCRAPES ALONG THE RIGHT REAR QTR. PANEL.

WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT HER INSURANCE COMPANY.

Operator of MV1 parked his car in the parking lot and went into the business, when he returned there was damage to the front passenger bumper area. Upon reviewing the cameras I was able to see the operator of MV1 park his vehicle in a space. At approximately 1841 hours MV2, a gray or darker colored Ford F150, pulls across spaces and attempts to go next to MV1. MV2 stops abruptly puts it in reverse and leaves. It appeared as if MV1 was struck by MV2.. It should be noted the camera is in black and white, unable to get any clear images of the license plate of MV2. No injuries reported.

Operator 1 states he was traveling east on Rumford Ave in mv1. Operator 1 had the green light and proceeded to cross over Lexington Street onto River Street.

MV1 sustained moderate damage to the front bumper. A queerie of 1ATF47 yielded a Black Licoln SUV with an owner of Alla Subach out of Brookline. Brookline police were able to provide me with a contact number of 7813675616 which I called and was able to speak with Mrs. Subach. Mrs. Subach states that she was aware she backed into the car but was in a rush so she told her friend who lives on Tanglewood Road to tell the owner of MV1 when he returned. Unfortunately Mrs. Subach's friend missed the owner which gave the appeareance of a hit and run. I provided Mrs. Subach with a copy of the report number and advised her how to handle these matters in the future. Neither car required a tow and there were no injuries sustained.

The operator of MV#1 states that he was stopped behind MV#2 on Washington St at the Mass Pike Eastbound entrance when MV#2 began to back up. Operator #1 stated that he used his MV horn to warn MV#2, however MV#2 continued in reverse and struck MV#1. The 2 operators then spoke and decided to drive to a safer area when MV#2 left the area and could not be located.

On 7/3/20, I met a party in the lobby of the NPD for a past hit and run report. The RP, Aleksander Duri ( MA Reg: 2LG632) stated he was parked in the Wegmans parking garage on 6/27/20. When Duri returned to his vehicle there was a note on it that said "I just saw a car hit your driver side back bumper. Teenage boy was driving, license plate 159XT5 Blue Subaru outback. If you have damage and need a witness you can call me [phone number in witness section]." MA Reg: 159XT5 comes back to a 2013 blue Subaru Outback registered to Emily Franklin-Strauss. In the census it lists three males who reside at the address in the same age group (DOB of 11/8/2001, 5/20/2004 and 7/2/1999). I attempted to call the phone number on file with negative results.

Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): On Monday, July 6, 2020, I attempted to make contact with the registered owner of MV2, Emily Franklin-Strauss (S56184971), with a negative result. A Hit and Run inquiry was mailed to Ms. Franklin-Strauss. On Wednesday, July 15, 2020, I spoke with the operator of MV2, Samuel Strauss (S90135443), via telephone. Strauss stated he was operating MA: 159XT5 at the time of the crash in the parking garage. Strauss stated he was backing his vehicle up and heard a sound.

Strauss stated a claim has been filed and insurance is now involved. Strauss stated he is an inexperienced driver and did not know what to do in a situation like this. Strauss was advised that if he is invovled in a crash in the future, he should contact the local police department in the city the the crash occurs in so the police can help faciliate an exchange of information. Strauss stated there was another passenger in the vehicle with him at the time of the crash named David Banteekhan.

The operator of vehicle 1 stated he pulled over and parked his car on Chestnut Street, across from house number 479, he got out of he car and was retrieving packages that he needed to deliver to 479 Chestnut St. While he was doing so he was standing on the sidewalk at the rear of his vehicle, he saw vehicle 2 approach his car slow down and try to get around it. He watched the front passenger side bumper of vehicle 2 strike the rear drivers side bumper of his vehicle. He then signaled to the driver of vehicle 2 by waving his hands to pull over, he stated the driver stopped, looked at him, and then continued to drive away. This caused minor paint transfer damage and scratches to vehicle 1. Due to the witness providing me with vehicle 2's plate information I was able to get the address vehicle 2 was registered at, 12 Dunstan Street in Newton. On arrival I spoke with HUIQUI who speaks very little English, I then waited for her son to get home and translate. Through her son, ChenBing Lu, Huiqui stated she was driving her sons car down Chestnut Street when the vehicle in front of her stopped, she was not expecting this as the road is narrow and one lane on each side. She slowed down and stopped and was very close to vehicle 1, she attempted to get around the vehicle by passing it on the left side, when she tried to do so another vehicle was traveling in the southbound lane towards her, she hit her brakes and ended up hitting vehicle 1 in front of her. This caused vehicle 2 to suffer minor paint damage and the bumper to partially move out of place. She was unsure what do to and frightened, she then continued to drive home. Due to her honesty and cooperation Hui Qui Chen and the very minor damage to both vehicles I will not be charging her with Leaving the Scene. She was advised on what to do in the future if this it to happen again.

On Monday, June 28, 2021, while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I was entering my marked cruiser to leave the parking lot at the rear of 1321 Washington Street, Newton. The rear parking lot of the police station features a public right of access, but is restricted for authorized vehicle. There are signs posted at both entrances to the parking lot stating, "RESTRICTED AREA Newton Police Department Authorized Vehicles Only Beyond This Point. As I entered my cruiser, I observed a red 2020 Jeep Wrangler (CT: AX89516) parked directly across from my cruiser facing Eastbound. This vehicle was not parked in a marked parking spot and was the last vehicle in the parking lot from the Cherry Street entrance on the North side of the lot. I observed that the front bumper of this vehicle made contact with the rear bumper area of a parked 2018 Tesla Model 3 (EV3617 ). I exited my vehicle and walked over to the vehicles to investigate if a crash had occurred. I observed a black male party sitting in the front passenger seat of the Jeep. The driver seat was vacant. The Jeep had its driver door and passenger door windows rolled down. The vehicle was not running and there were no keys in the ignition. As I approached the passenger side door, the male passenger appeared to be asleep and I could detect a moderate odor of alcoholic beverage emanating from the passenger seat area. I woke up the passenger and inquired where the driver of the vehicle was. The passenger identified himself by his Connecticut ID as Masengo Kabongo (#178372788). Mr. Kabongo stated his cousin Marcel was the operator of the vehicle and they had pulled into their current parking spot so Marcel could run an errand. Mr. Kabongo stated he did not know where his cousin was, and he could not locate his phone to contact his cousin. I asked Mr. Kabongo if he was aware he was parked in the Newton Police Station parking lot and that the vehicle he was sitting in crashed into an employee's vehicle parked in front of them. Mr. Kabongo stated he was not aware. Mr. Kabongo appeared to be very confused with the situation and continued to state he did not know why they were there and where his cousin was. The registered owner of the Tesla arrived and assessed the damage to his vehicle. I observed minor damage to the rear bumper area to MV2. There was also minor damage to the front bumper of MV1. The owner of MV2 was able to review footage of the crash from his vehicles exterior surveillance system. While viewing this video with him, I observed MV1 enter the Newton Police Department parking lot from Cherry Street and pull right behind MV2. MV1 appeared to be occupied by two black males at this time. One in the passenger seat and one in the driver seat. MV1's front bumper area is then observed crashing into the rear bumper area of MV2. The Newton Police Department IT Bureau was able to observe the crash from a surveillance camera affixed to the Newton Police Department maintenance garage (facing Cherry Street). The video captures MV1 entering the parking lot and crashing into the rear of MV2. A black male with light colored shorts and a dark T-shirt is observed exiting the driver side door and walking away from the area up Cherry Street (S) to Washington Street. I explained to Mr. Kabongo that the crash was captured on our surveillance system and that his cousin appeared to be the operator. Mr. Kabongo stated his cousin was currently in Newton District Court being arranged for a previous incident (Report #21027283). I looked up recent bookings for NPD and I observed a party matching the name Mr. Kabongo provided. On Friday, June 25, 2021. Mr. Marcel Mengue-Ngoumou was arrested and cited by the Newton Police Department for OUI (Subsequent Offense), Negligent Operation, Marked Lanes, Open Container, and Unlicensed Operation. I contacted the Newton Police Department Court Prosecutor, Officer Hagopian, to see of Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou was still present in Newton District Court. Officer Hagopian stated he contacted the court and Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou was waiting to be arraigned. Myself and Officer Hagopian responded to Newton District Court to try and speak with Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou. Upon entering Session 1 in NDC, the lone individual sitting in the gallery was a party matching the description of the party from the surveillance footage. I spoke with Assistant District Attorney Nathan Stetson who was present in the court room. I apprised him of the current incident that Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou was involved in and told him I was going to speak with him. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou at this time was sitting on the second to last bench on the left side of Session 1 as you walk into the courtroom. The exit to the courtroom was behind him. I approached Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou from the front of the courtroom and explained to him that I had just spoken to his cousin in the parking lot of the Newton Police Department. I explained to him the vehicle his cousin was sitting in had crashed into a parked vehicle belonging to a Newton Police Department employee. I explained to Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou that his cousin had identified him as the operator of the vehicle. I then asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou who was operating the vehicle when they were traveling to court today. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he was the operator. I asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou if he knew he had parked in the Newton Police Department parking lot. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he did not. I asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou if he knew he crashed into a parked vehicle in the parking lot. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he did not. I asked Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou if he knew he was not supposed to be operating a vehicle because of his incident from the other night and his license being suspended. Mr. Mengue-Ngoumou stated he did.

MV 1 followed MV 2 and MV 2 eventually stoped in a parking lot in Watertown. The operator of MV 2 refused to give his information to the operator of MV 1 and drove away in his car for the second time. The operator of MV 1 was able to take down the license plate of MV 2. A few hours after the operator of MV 1 came in to report the Hit and Run I spoke on the phone with the operator of MV 2 and he stated that it was a tight squeeze on the street and he side swiped the MV 1. He also stated that he panicked and that is why he left the scene without providing his information. MV 1 was damaged on the drivers side with scratches on the door, the wheel well, and the mirror was broken. MV 2 had scratches on the drivers side also according to the driver of MV 1. Neither party was injured during this collision. I sent a Criminal Application in the mail to the operator of MV2.

The first number went straight to voicemail and Dispatch left a message for Ms. Martin. The second number was inactive. And the third number belonged to Ms. Martin ex-husband, who refused to speak to me and said that he will be calling the police himself to verify information regarding this Hit&Run Investigation.

Murphy did not witness another vehicle strike her vehicle. Murphy and her neighbors are unaware of the name of the company who is doing the work at the house. I advised Murphy to contact the landlord to see if they can locate the name of the company who is doing the work at the house. I canvassed the area for cameras yielding negative results. There were no injuries and Murphy's vehicle is able to drive without any issues. At 19:30hrs Murphy came into the Newton Police Station to provide me with the other driver's information. Murphy said she was contacted by Rostyslav Bulat, who said he was the driver who hit her vehicle. Bulat provided Murphy with all of his information. I called Bulat and asked him what had transpired. Bulat said he was not aware that he had struck Murphy's vehicle and was notified by his boss that Murphy's vehicle was struck as Bulat backed out of the driveway. Bulat said once he found out he struck the vehicle he got Murphy's information and provided her with all of his information. I advised Bulat that he has to be careful driving and if he hits a vehicle he must stop to provide his information. Bulat was apologetic and said he would be in contact with Murphy throughout the insurance process to ensure it gets done. It should be noted that Bulat has an active license from Ukraine. Bulat has lived in Massachusetts for approximately 2 months and has been in contact with the RMV to get a Massachusetts's license.
