crash_reports

Operator of MV1 was driving westbound on Beacon St in the area of 741 Beacon. Operator of MV1 stated his tire blew out and the car swerved into the side of MV2 and then the rear of MV3 which were both parked legally. Witness 1 stated she heard the crash but did not see the impact. She stated she heard the crashing noise first, and then heard a loud popping noise of the tire blowing out shortly after. Witness 1 identified Cesar Ramirez Rodriguez as the Operator of MV1. Operator of MV1 was uninjured, and the other two vehicles were unoccupied. Todys responded and towed MV1 and MV2. Operator of MV1 was issued, in hand, MA citation T1440439 for 90/23 Operating after suspension and 89/4A marked lanes violation. I was eventually able to locate the owners/drivers of the parked vehicles and they were given the report number. Beacon St is a public way in the City of Newton.

Oper of veh # 1 and both occupants state that veh # 1 was pulled over to the side of Union Street (public way in city of Newton) waiting as someone was pulling out of a street parking spot when it was hit by veh # 2 who was traveling EB on Union Street. All occupants of the vehicle felt the collision which caused minor damage. They stated the blue Subaru kept going but went around the block and stopped near vehicle to see if there was damage to MV #1, When Oper 2 realized they were taking picture of his vehicle he fled the area without talking to anyone involved. They described Oper #2 as an Asian male, Veh # 2 was registered to an Asian male. Tried contacting owner of veh 2 however listed number was invalid. Citation mailed to Oper # 2 for leaving the scene of property damage.

On 3/4/19 at approximately 1630hrs, I responded to the front desk for a report of a past hit and run. Operator#1 stated she was involved in an an accident on 2/27/19 at 1436hrs in front of Mango Thai, 115 Elm St. Operator #1 stated she was stopped waiting for the red light at Elm St and Washington when a "new black or gray SUV" pulled out of a parking spot the right of her. The other vehicle sideswiped her passenger side causing a large scratch. Operator #1i stated she honked and attempted to stop the vehicle but the driver pulled away. Operator #1 was only able to identify the driver as a male but did provide me with a plate of MA Reg 9RM445. The plate comes back leased to a 2018 Gray Jeep Compass registered to a Matthew Veteto. I was unable to find any phone number for Veteto. Operator#1 has already filed a claim with her insurance company who advised her she would need a police report. Due to being unable to verify who was driving, a citation was not issued.

ON THIS DATE I RESPONDED TO 5 MEADOWBROOK RD, FOR A REPORT OF AN AUTO ACCIDENT (SEE INCIDENT REPORT #19018289). THE CALL WAS RECEIVED FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICE WHO WERE ON-SCENE.

Commonwealth Avenue is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. The weather at the time of the crash was clear and sunny, The road surface was dry.

Vehicle 1 was travelling northbound, behind vehicle 2 on Centre St. Vehicle 2 went around vehicle 1, in order to get into the left hand lane, which started up ahead. Vehicle 2 changed into the left hand lane with no blinker, while vehicle 1 was already in it. I observed moderate damage to the front drivers side of vehicle 2, and minor damage to the passenger side of vehicle 1. Newton medics evaluated all parties, and cleared with refusals. Todys towed vehicle 1 because of the fact that it was unregistered. A Massachusetts uniform citation (T2080110), was issued in hand to the operator of vehicle 1. See incident report #21039072, for criminal charges. Witness 1 was travelling behind vehicle 2, and has the accident on video. He was advised to email this to me, which I will have attached to the accident report.

Witnesses at the scene informed me that MV#1 was traveling west on Commonwealth Ave in the area of #2102 when MV#2, who was traveling east on Commonwealth Ave in the same area crossed the yellow line and crashed into MV#1. The operator of MV#1 was upset and sitting in MV#1 when I interviewed her and only stated that her left hip hurt. Operator #1 refused medical treatment at that time and wanted to wait for her mother to arrive before making any decisions. The operator of MV#2 stated that he was traveling east on Commonwealth Ave in the area of #2102 in the left hand lane when a pedestrian appeared in the roadway. According to operator #2, he cut his steering wheel to the left to avoid the pedestrian and struck MV#1. No tows and only a minor injury to the operator of MV#1, though she did not want to be evaluated by the medics. Two independent witnesses to the crash gave me similar statements that operator #2 had driven on the wrong side of the road prior to the crash and was operating at a high rate of speed. Operator #2 cited for failure to obey signage. Only after I completed this report, was I notified by Cheryl Petitti, the mother of Marisa Petitti that Marisa was not operating MV#1 at the time of the crash and that she may have been struck by MV#2. I re-interviewed both witnesses and they confirmed that Marisa was in fact the pedestrian crossing the street, which I did not know, but they did not witness her being struck by MV#2 due to their view being obstructed. Cheryl Petitti also states that she was contacted by another witness, who had left prior to my arrival, that has information to provide. At this time I will notify the Traffic Bureau of a possible Auto Pedestrian to be further investigated.

The operator of MV1 stated he was traveling North on North street when he didn't see MV2 parked on the right hand side, facing north bound and struck the rear driver side of the vehicle. After striking MV2, MV1 crossed into the south bound lane, where it stopped. The airbags deployed and the operator was checked out by the medics and he signed a refusal.

A good Samaritan witnessed the accident and stated to him, a SUV struck the reporting parties vehicle and took off. The witness took video of the accident. I watched the video and observed the SUV hit MV1 with the passenger side of the vehicle and then brake and continued southbound on Adams st. The witness got a registration of MA reg 2BZH27 and told the owner of MV1 that a female was operating the vehicle. Dispatch attempted to contact the owner of the vehicle yielding negative results and unable to leave a voicemail. A text message was sent to the owner to contact NPD from the dispatch cell phone. MV1 had damage to the driver side doors and mirror. A voicemail was left for the witness. I forwarded a video of the accident and photo of the vehicle to IT to be added to the report. As of now the owner of MV2 is listed as "uninvolved owner" under persons "2" until the accident is further investigated and until contact is made with the owner to determine who was operating the vehicle. Charges pending. Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): On March 11, 2022, I reviewed the dash camera footage submitted to the IT Bureau by Officer Stake. The footage shows a dark colored SUV vear off to the right side of the roadway on Adams Street. The vehicle's front passenger side crashes into the driver side of a parked vehicle in front of 203 Adams Street (S). As the witness drives by where the crash occured, the footage from their camera pans over to the parked vehicle and shows damage to it's driver side. The footage then resumes facing Southbound on Adams Street and the fleeing vehicle continues Southbound on Adams Street towards Washginton Street and does not stop. The vehicle is idenitified by a still photo submitted by the witness as a 2016 Kia Sportage bearing Massachusetts registration 2BZH27. This vehicle is registed to Ms. Jennifer Mc Quiggan (S30952065). I contacted Ms. Mc Quiggan and asked about her vehicles involvement in the crash on March 10, 2022. Ms. Mc Quiggan stated she was operating the vehicle at the time of the crash on Adams Street and thought she hit a snow bank. I advised Ms. Mc Quiggan that I had just finsihed reviewing the footage of the crash that was submitted by a witness and it shows her vehicle vearing off of the road and crashing into a parked vehicle. After reviewing the footage of the crash and obtaining an admission by Ms. Mc Quiggan that she was operating MV2 at the time of the crash, I issued Ms. Mc Quiggan Massachusetts Uniform Citation 328660AB for Chapter 90, Section 24 (Leaving the Scene of Property Damage) and Chapter 89, Section 4A (Marked Lanes Violation).
