MV1 was stopped at a red light north on Tremont St at Waverly Ave. MV2 was stopped behind MV1. MV2 reached for something and her foot slipped off the gas and she bumped the rear of MV1. All parties agreed that it was a tap from behind and that there was no damage to either MV. However, there were 2 special needs students on the van that go to NNHS. Amb1 responded and obtained refusals from both parents who responded to the scene. I took pictures of both MVs and TOT IT.

Narrative:
On Saturday March 9, 2019, at approximately 0230 hours, I, Officer Brandon, responded to the Weston/Newton line on Commonwealth Ave to assist Weston PD with field sobriety. On arrival Weston PD had concluded field sobriety and determined that the party, Glenn Matot, was not under the influence. Weston PD then explained that they had been contacted by AAA stating that a single vehicle accident occurred in Weston's jurisdiction. After further review, Weston PD and I determined that the accident was in fact in Newton. I then spoke with the operator of MV1, Glenn Matot, who stated that he was on his way home from work traveling westbound on Commonwealth ave in front of the Charles River Canoe and Kayak when he became distracted by a text message. Mr. Matot further explained that while texting, his car drifted to the right causing him to drive up on the snow bank and up onto the guard rail before then falling off back into the road. MV1 sustained major damage to both the passenger side and undercarriage. Mr. Matot did not sustain any injuries and denied any medical attention. AAA arrived on scene and removed the vehicle from the road and Mr. Matot took an Uber home. Two pictures were taken of the damaged City of Newton guard rail and submitted to IT to be attached to the report.

The operator of MV#1 stated she was travelling southbound on Lexington St and was "multi tasking" inside her vehicle when she veered off into the northbound travel lane, jumped the curb onto the sidewalk and got wedged in between a city tree and the retaining wall of 106 Lexington St. The operator of MV#1 was not injured but could not exit her vehicle because the doors were wedged in between the tree and retaining wall.

Narrative:
I responded to the area of 63 Pierrepoint Rd for a report of an MVA single car crash into a tree. I responded to the area at approx. 1752 hrs 09/19/2020. I was advised by NPD Dispatch that the vehicle was unoccupied and that the vehicle has been there all day according to the anonymous reporting party.. When I arrived on location I observed MA Reg. 31542 off the roadway facing westbound directly in front of a tree. This was located directly in front of the residence of 63 Pierrepont Rd. The vehicle was unoccupied with heavy front end damage and front and side airbag deployment. The windows were left 2/3 of the way open and the cars ignition key was left on the driver's seat. The vehicle had collided into a city tree. There was debris from the vehicle at the base of the tree. The tree had visibly been hit but there was no damage to the tree by my observation. I contacted the vehicle owner Edward G. Murray Jr. He confirmed that he had knowledge of the crash. His son Edward G Murray III was the operator at the time of the crash. Murray III had a female passenger Diana Moreno 07/12/2004. I spoke with both Murray Jr. and Murray III via telephone. Murray III stated he was driving following his GPS and suddenly an animal which he believed to be a small dog suddenly ran in front of the car. Murray III swerved to avoid hitting the animal and drove off the road and collided into the tree. He stated the crash was at approx. 0950 on 09/19/2020. I also spoke with Diana Moreno (passenger), via telephone. She could not tell me what preceded the crash as she was looking at her cell phone just prior to the crash. Murray III and Moreno confirmed they were not injured as a result of the crash. Murray III contacted his father and informed him of the crash. Neither party contacted police. Murray Jr contacted AAA to respond advising the vehicle needed to be towed. Murray Jr. stated he was not further contacted by AAA and assumed that the vehicle was towed. Murray III and Moreno left the vehicle parked off the roadway as AAA was not immediately responding. I photographed the crash scene. The photo memory disk has been submitted to NPD IT bureau. The vehicle was towed by Tody's Service Inc.
