Narrative:
Leary was crossing Needham St southbound at the corner of the property between Stop and Shop and Jiffy Lube. She states that she was 1/4 of the way across the street when she was struck by MV1. The left side of her body(arm, hip) struck the right side of the MV. She fell to the ground. MV1 states that he was pulling out of the Stop and Shop driveway to turn right onto Needham St. He saw the pedestrian next to the snow bank on the right side of the driveway as he approached the end of the driveway. When he got to the end he did not see her anymore and assumed she had continued walking west on Needham St. He then turned right and felt the collision and then he saw her. He immediately pulled into the Jiffy Lube lot to check on her. I took pictures of the scene and the MV. They were TOT IT. After further investigation, on 2/7 the operator was cited for 90/14 failure to stop for pedestrian. I spoke with Kenneth via phone and advised him of the update. The citation was mailed to him. I am charging for 90/14 failure to stop for a pedestrian. On Wednesday February 6, the operator information of this report was ammended to show the correct operator information.

Narrative:
MV1 was traveling east on Madison Ave from Walnut St approaching #80. There were 2 landscape vehicles parked on left side of the street. The operator, Sarah Ruth Loper-Sengupta, stated that she never saw the pedestrian that was in the roadway (N) due to solar glare. Loper-Sengupta stated she heard a thump coming from the passenger side of her vehicle. Loper-Sengupta stated she looked over to her right and saw a trash barrel in the air. Loper-Sengupta stated she then saw a male party lying on the roadway on her passenger side. Immediately after striking the pedestrian, Loper-Sengupta, stopped to check on him. There was a golden doodle dog in the back seat of the MV at the time of the accident, unrestrained. There were no obstructions hanging from the mirror or windshield area. The front drivers visor was down. There was no airbag deployment. I observed significat damage to the front passenger side windshield area. There was also damage to the front passenger side hood area. See Sgt. Lee update for victim statement Numerous pictures were taken by Ofc. Gaudet of the MV and scene. They were TOT IT. The MV was towed by Tody's due to its shattered windshield. No citation will be issued to Loper-Sengupta. The solar glare caused her to not able to see the pedestrian. The Sgt. and I dont believe the pedestrian looked before crossing with the barell on his left shoulder because he would have been able to see the MV coming as this is straight away section of Madison Ave. It should be noted, that when I arrived on scene I immediately noticed the seolar glare as I walked east on Madison Ave.

Narrative:
On 11/27/19 at 12:43 hours, I responded to the Petsmart located at 215 Needham Street for a motor vehicle bicyclist accident. The weather at the time was approximately 50 degrees, cloudy and the road conditions were dry. No injuries reported. Operator of MV # 1 (Barbara Cooper) states she was facing eastbound on Needham Street waiting in the center turn lanes to take a left turn in to the garage of 215 Needham Street. Next, she states that a large truck going westbound stopped for her and waved her on to turn. She then proceeded in to the garage and parked and that is when she was confronted by the bicyclist saying that she was struck with her vehicle. The operator was unaware of an accident occurring and was not able to visibly see past the truck while turning. I observed a minor scratch to the passenger rear quarter panel area of the vehicle. Operator of the bicyclist (Merissa Brousseau) states she traveling westbound in the bicycle lane on the right side near 215 Needham Street when she observed the large truck mentioned above suddenly stop. She states that she was also visibly blocked from seeing ahead due to the truck. She then kept peddling straight through and struck MV # 1 in the passenger side rear end as it was making its left turn. The operator was evaluated by Cataldo Ambulance but refused medical attention. I observed no apparent damage to the bicycle. Ms. Brousseau was wearing a bicycle helmet, black and red Boston University bicycle suit, and red BU sock covers over her shoes.

Narrative:
On May 16th, 2020 at approximately 10:01 hours while working N491 I responded to #281 Newtonville Ave for a reported single vehicle crash. While en route the reporting party stated the vehicle had left the scene. On my arrival I spoke with the R/P who stated while riding his bike down Newtonville Ave he observed a black colored landscaping pickup truck back out of Pillion Court onto Newtonville Ave and hit a fire hydrant across the Street. Its possible the driver never knew he struck the hydrant. The R/P never saw the driver or the license plate number. Fire department and water department were notified and were responding. Pictures were taken and later submitted to Technology Bureau.

Narrative:
Operator of vehicle one ( 2019 Honda CRV MA reg 2SAH91 ) Elizabeth Sylvia stated that on 11/16/2021 at 16:56 hours she was driving south bound on Needham St near Charlemont St. Needham St is a public way in the City of Newton. Sylvia stated that as her vehicle slowed to turn left onto Charlemont St it's front driver's side struck a pedestrian in a crosswalk. Sylvia stated that she did not see the pedestrian prior to the crash due to the area not being lit. It should be noted that the over head street light was inoperable, and the cross walk was not illuminated or reflective. The crosswalk sign that was posted before the crosswalk was not reflective. Sylvia stated that she was unaware that a crosswalk was at the crash location. Sylvia was not injured in the crash , and her vehicle had no damage to it. The pedestrian Nivicha Morpeau stated that she was in the crosswalk in front of 241 Needham St when she was stuck by the front driver's side of vehicle one. It should be noted that Morpeau was wearing dark clothing at the time of the crash. Morpeau complained of back pain, but refused medical treatment and transportation to the hospital. Morpeau singed a patient refusal form provide to her by Medics. Based upon statements made to me by Sylvia and Morpeau I issued Sylvia MA Uniform Citation T 2016746 and cited her for a violation of Newton City ordnance 19/116 failure to stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk. I took photos of vehicle one and the disk was forward to the NPD's IT Bureau for downloading.
