Narrative:
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.

Narrative:
On Wednesday, February 13, 2019 while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to the 280 Newtonville Avenue, Newton for a report of a past hit and run accident. I met with Madeleine Aubourg (S67566148) who stated she is a Nursing Assistant at Cabot Park Village. Aubourg stated due to the snowfall the area had the previous day, Aubourg left her vehicle parked (S) in the rear parking lot overnight. Aubourg stated this morning when she returned to work she observed damage to the front bumper area of her 2018 Toyota Camry (MA: 6AN179). Aubourg stated she believes sometime overnight when the parking lot was being plowed a plow truck hit the front of her vehicle. I observed moderate damage to the front bumper area. I spoke with Adolfo Merida-Diaz (S44133458) on scene who stated he is employed by Marquense Landscaping and is responsible for the snow removal at 280 Newtonville Avenue. Merida-Diaz stated last evening and this morning he removed snow from the parking lot and did not make contact with any vehicles in the parking lot during his duties. I showed Merida-Diaz where the alleged accident occurred. Merida-Diaz stated he does not remember a car being parked in that particular spot, but if there was a car parked there he leaves enough room so he is not near any vehicles. I did not observe any surveillance cameras in this portion of the parking lot. There are no witnesses to the alleged accident. Aubourg was advised to speak with her insurance company.

Narrative:
On 3/1/19 while working N493, myself and N492 Officer Selig were sent to the area of 1354 Washington St for a motor vehicle accident with reported injuries. On arrival, I spoke to Matthew Digregorio DOB7/2/74 ( hereby referred to as operator #1) who was standing on the sidewalk next to MA reg 134TR9 (vehicle #1 ). Vehicle #1 had significant damage to the front and right quarter panels. It was straddled between the travel lanes and did not have the keys in the ignition. It was immediately apparent that operator #1 suffered an injury to his head, as there was a moderate amount of blood and small pieces of glass stuck in his forehead area. I observed operator #1 to be unsteady on his feet, have bloodshot eyes and slurred speech. I could detect a moderate odor of alchoholic beverage coming from operator #1 as I was approaching him, which was apparent from about an arms length away (it should be noted that medics were already en route to the scene at this time). Prior to the medics arrival, I asked operator #1 for a brief synopsis of what transpired. Operator #1 stated that he had just left Paddy's Pub and was driving westbound on Hunter St (which is approximately 1/8 mile from our location) when he collided head on with vehicle #2. Vehicle #2 was not immediately visible upon police arrival, however was pointed out as being located at the intersection of Hunter and Putnam St. I asked operator #1 where he was heading, as Hunter St is a back road not directly in the vicinity of Paddy's. Operator #1 could not answer the question and also remained silent when I asked him how much alcohol he had consumed this evening. At this time the medics arrived on scene. I asked operator #1 for the car keys to reliquish to the tow truck operator, which is standard operating practice. Operator #1 reached into his pocket and then provided me with the keys. Due to concern over operator #1's obvious head trauma, he was then transported to NWH to be evaluated while the investigation continued on scene. Two other parties approached myself and Officer Selig. One was the operator of vehicle #2, MA reg 1RD999. Operator #2 is identified as Luke Ferdinands DOB 5/11/80. The other party who approached is identified as Douglas Dasilva-Pimenta DOB 6/2/86 (Dasilva-Pimenta will now be referred to as operator #3). Operator #2 states that he was taking a right onto Hunter St from Putnam St, when he observed vehicle #1 on the wrong side of the road approaching him head on. Operator #2 states vehicle #1 then collided head on with him, took a right onto Putnam St, and continued onto the Washington St overpass near 1354 Washington St. Operator #3 states he was inside of #5 Hunter St when he heard a loud crash coming from outside. He looked out the window and saw vehicle #1 traveling at a high rate of speed on Hunter St towards Putnam St. Operator #3 observed damage to the right side of his parked vehicle (now referred to as vehicle #3) MA reg 7CAK80. He immediately got in his vehicle and proceeded to follow vehicle #1, which then crashed into vehicle #2 head on. Operator #1 did not stop until it was obvious that operator #3 was following close behind. This ultimately landed vehicle #1 at it's final location near 1354 Washington St. Vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 were not driveable and were towed to Tody's. It should be noted that there was a passenger in vehicle #2 at the time of the collision. Airbags were deployed and medics checked out both operator and passenger. Both declined transport. The passenger is identified as Elizabeth Ferdinands DOB 5/22/53.Ferdinands' version of events coincide with that of operator #2. Upon speaking with Officer Selig it was learned that operator #1 dropped his cell phone several times as he was holding it on scene. Both Officer Selig and operators #2 and #3 observed this. Operators #2 and #3 both expressed concern over the obvious odor of alcohol eminating from operator #1, and the fact that he was unsteady on his feet. I responded to NWH to follow up with operator #1 however he did not wish to speak further. He did express concern over the well being of all parties involved. Operator #1 was issued in hand the following citations: T1268426 - 90/24 OUI Alcohol, 90/24 Leaving the Scene (property damage, vehicle #2), and 90/24 Leaving the Scene (property damage, vehicle #3). T1268425 - 89/4a Marked Lanes violation. T1269216 - 90/24 Negligent Operation of a M/V (mailed after consultation with superiors) All streets mentioned are public ways in the City of Newton. 1354 Washington St will be the address used on this report and subsequent citations due to multiple locations being involved. Citations and paperwork have been placed in the prosecutor's mailbox. An immediate threat form has been filled out and faxed to Mass DOT. *Attention Police Prosecutor for blood work subpoena, if applicable*

I then spoke with the operator of MV#2 who stated he was driving southbound on Hammond St when his vehicle lost control around the turn and drifted into the opposite lane and struck MV#1. I issued the operator of MV#2 MA Citation T1268628 for Chapter 89/4A; Marked Lanes Violation. At the time of this accident there were heavy snow conditions. Tody's Towing responded and towed both vehicles from the scene.

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. ON-SCENE PRIOR TO MY ARRIVAL WERE CAPTAIN DOWLING AND TRAFFIC SERGEANT LEE. CATALDO MEDIC 2 AND AMBULANCE 1 ARRIVED ON-SCENE, SHORTLY AFTER I DID. UPON MY ARRIVAL, I OBSERVED A SILVER HONDA CIVIC WITH HEAVY FRONT END DAMAGE. THE VEHICLE DISPLAYED MASSACHUSETTS REGISTRATION 7ZF784. TWO PEOPLE WERE STANDING BESIDE THE VEHICLE. A MAN AND A WOMEN SAID THEY HAD BEEN IN THE CAR. THE MAN, LATER IDENTIFIED AS BENJAMIN SMALL STATED HE HAD BEEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE WOMAN, LATER IDENTIFIED AS KIMBERLY OAKES, STATED SHE WAS A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE. I ASKED THEM IF THEY WERE OK OR NEEDED MEDICAL HELP AND THEY SAID THEY WERE NOT INJURED. THE MEDICS CHECKED OUT MR SMALL ( MEDICS ELISE GADANSKY AND ROBERT ANDERSON) WHICH INCLUDED CHECKING FOR LOW BLOOD SUGAR, DUE TO HIS INABILITY TO SPEAK CLEARLY AND LEGIBLY. HIS BLOOD SUGAR CHECKED OUT FINE. I THEN ASKED MR SMALL WHAT HAD HAPPENED. HE STATED THAT HE WAS TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON DEDHAM ST WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN A WHITE MINI VAN CROSSED OVER THE DOUBLE YELLOW LINE AND WAS HEADING TOWARDS HIM. HE STATED THAT IN ORDER TO AVOID A HEAD ON COLLISION, HE SWERVED RIGHT, OFF THE ROAD AND STRUCK A TELEPHONE POLE (LATER DETERMINED TO BE UTILITY POLE #60 LOCATED IN FRONT OF 556 DEDHAM STREET). HE STATED THAT HE PULLED OVER ONTO MEADOWBROOK RD. BOTH DEDHAM STREET AND MEADOWBROOK RD ARE PUBLIC WAYS IN THE CITY OF NEWTON. AS I WAS TALKING TO MR SMALL HE APPEARED TO SPEAK VERY SLOWLY, HE APPEARED TO BE LETHARGIC, BUT I COULD NOT DETECT ANY ODOR OF AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE ON HIS BREATH. NEXT I SPOKE TO MS OAKES WHO STATED SHE IS MR SMALL'S GIRLFRIEND. SHE STATED SHE WAS A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT OF THE CAR. SHE ALSO STATED THAT MR SMALL WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE WHEN A VEHICLE HAD CUT THEM OFF FORCING THEM OFF THE ROAD INTO THE TELEPHONE POLE. DUE TO THE FACT THAT WE COULD NOT SMELL ANY ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE ON HIS BREATH, CAPTAIN DOWLING REQUESTED THAT A DRUG RECOGNITION EXPERT (DRE) BE CALLED TO THE SCENE. DISPATCH NOTIFIED SURROUNDING CITIES AND TOWNS OF OUR NEED FOR A DRE. NOBODY WAS ABLE TO RESPOND. TRAFFIC OFFICER WADE RESPONDED TO THE SCENE AND PERFORMED A ROADSIDE ASSESSMENT ON MR SMALL. SEE HIS SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT. BASED ON OFFICER WADES ROADSIDE ASSESSMENT AND MY ON-SCENE OBSERVATIONS, I PLACED MR SMALL UNDER ARREST FOR OUI DRUGS, MARKED LANES, AND NEGLIGENT OPERATION OF A MV. MR SMALL WAS HANDCUFFED AND SEARCHED BY OFFICER WADE. PRIOR TO TRANSPORT, CRUISER 499 WAS SEARCHED BY OFFICER WADE FOR CONTRABAND WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. OFFICER WADE THEN PLACED MR SMALL INTO CRUISER 499 AND SEAT BELTED HIM. WHILE OFFICER WADE DID THIS, OFFICER WILSON AND I DID AN INVENTORY OF THE VEHICLE. DURING THE INVENTORY, 9 CVS PAPER PRESCRIPTION PRINTOUTS WERE FOUND. THEY WERE ALL IN MR SMALL'S NAME FOR THE DRUG "ADDERALL" (8) OR "KLONOPIN" (1). ALSO FOUND WAS A SMALL YELLOW PLASTIC PRESCRIPTION TYPE BOTTLE CONTAINING AN UNKNOWN LIQUID. OFFICER WILSON PLACED THE BOTTLE OF UNKNOWN LIQUID INTO A BAG AND HAD IT LATER EXAMINED AT THE NPD STATION BY DET. ROBINSON OF THE DRUG UNIT (HE DETERMINED IT TO BE NOT SUSPICIOUS AND IT WAS DISPOSED OF). THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED BY TODY'S TOWING. THE CVS PAPER PRESCRIPTION PRINTOUTS WERE REMOVED AND PLACED INTO PROPERTY AND EVIDENCE. TOWED MV AND PROPERTY AND EVIDENCE FORMS WERE FILLED OUT. PICTURES OF THE VEHICLE AND DAMAGED TELEPHONE POLE WERE TAKEN BY OFFICER WILSON. OFFICER WILSON TURNED THE DISC OVER TO DIRECTOR SMITH, WHO DOWNLOADED THEM. AFTER THE MV INVENTORY, I TRANSPORTED MR SMALL TO NEWTON POLICE FOR BOOKING. AT THE STATION MR SMALL WAS REMOVED FROM MY CRUISER AND THE CRUISER WAS AGAIN SEARCHED AND I FOUND NO CONTRABAND OR WEAPONS. HE WAS THEN PROCESSED BY OFFICER JASON SCHLEGEL, BOOKED BY SGT O'CONNELL, THEN PLACED INTO CELL #3. MR SMALL WAS ISSUED CITATION NUMBER T0645459, IN HAND FOR 1.) OUI DRUGS CH90 SEC24, 2.)

On Thursday, May 16th 2019, at approximately 6:40am, I, Officer Brooks, responded to 930 Watertown street for a report of a head on collision. Upon my arrival I spoke with the operator of MV1(MA REG RT91EL) who stated she was traveling westbound on Watertown street and "blacked out" and could not recall how the accident happened. I asked what she meant about blacking out, and she stated she thought she had a panic attack and may have passed out. The operator of MV1 stated she takes Lorazepam for panic attacks, but has never had one like this. MV1 had heavy front end damage and airbag deployment, specifically to the driver's side. The operator was uninjured. I then spoke with the operator of MV2(RI COM 81082) who stated he was traveling eastbound on Watertown street, and observed MV1 crossing over the center line. The operator of MV2 stated he tried to get out of the way but MV1 continued into his lane and struck him head on. MV2 had damage to the drivers side front end. The operator stated that he was suffering from shoulder pain to his right shoulder. The operator of MV2 was transported to Newton Welleseley by Cataldo. Both MV1 and MV2 were towed by Tody's due to the damage. As a result of the collision, MV2 rolled into parked a vehicle MV3(MA REG 315PW6). There was minor damage to the rear end of MV3. The owner was notified and provided the crash information. The operator of MV1 was mailed MA Uniform citation T1442362 for 89/4a Marked Lanes violation, and additionally based on her statement of passing out at the wheel I filed an immediate threat with the registry. The operator of MV2 was mailed MA Uniform Citation T1442363 for 90/9 Expired registration.

Narrative:
On 5/20/19 at about 1510hrs I was dispatched to 136 Evelyn Rd for an MVA. En route to the location with Ofc Gourdeau, it was determined by first arriving Ofc Gourdeau that a vehicle had crashed through a fence at the end of Troy Lane and came to rest in the backyard of 126 Evelyn Rd. On arrival, I located the vehicle operator, identified as Mr Stuart Phillips who was operating MA Reg 8VVP40, an '03 Jaguar S Type model. Mr Phillips was walking around the backyard after the collision and appeared coherent as to what had transpired. He sustained a laceration to the top of his head and was bleeding heavily. We sat him down in a lawn chair prior to medics arrival to evaluate. When asked what happened, he stated he "hit the gas instead of the brakes". I asked him where did the accident begin? He stated he was turning around at the end of Troy Lane (a dead end cul de sac) and crashed through the fence there. Mr Phillips was alert and speaking clearly. I asked him if he was on any medication? He stated he was taking Plavix only, a blood thinner. I asked about his medical history and he stated he was released from Spalding Rehab today for treatment from a stroke and was receiving occupational therapy. Medics arrived to evaluate and he was transported to NWH for treatment. An investigation of the crash path of the vehicle revealed the following based on tire tracks and damage left behind: The vehicle crashed through the fence at the end of the cul de sac belonging to 41A Helene Rd; Vehicle drove over that back lawn, clipped the back deck attached to the rear of the house; damaging the base of the deck and lattice below; Vehicle travelled over the patio, then crashed through shrubbery down an embankment leading to the backyard of 132 Evelyn Rd; Vehicle drove through backyard of 132 Evelyn, then continued along the side of the house where it drove over damaging three retaining walls and clipped a large tree; After driving over the third retaining wall, vehicle continued through the backyard of 126 Evelyn, causing significant lawn damage; Vehicle continued until it hit the back of the house at 126 Evelyn; there, it drove over the rear patio before it struck a ground level basement window and window well; It came to a rest there where the vehicle caught on fire under the hood. Witnesses helped extinguish the fire with a garden house (see incident report #19020129) until NFD arrived to knock it down. Significant front lawn damage to 126 Evelyn occurred as well as NFD was arriving on scene to what was first reported as a structure fire. Several photos of the area were taken by myself. The memory chip was TOT the I.T. bureau to be attached to this report. Tody's towing towed the vehicle out of the backyard by accessing the rear driveway of 132 Evelyn Rd. Mr Phillips cited for Negligent Operation and an Immediate Threat for License Suspension/Revocation faxed to the RMV. Troy Lane is a public way in the City of Newton.

Upon arrival, I spoke with reporting party Cornelia Cain-Heard who said she had been travelling on Woodland St behind a yellow Penkse moving truck. The truck took a left on Auburn St and the top of the truck got caught on a city tree in front of 483 Auburn St. Cain-Heard was unable to get a plate for the vehicle and I did not see any cameras in the area. The truck uprooted the tree causing two branches to fall across the roadway and the sidewalk square to be displaced. We were able to move the branches out of the roadway to allow traffic to pass. Forestry was notified, responded and removed the branches. The affected sidewalk was taped off and the city was notified for repairs. Photos were taken and forwarded to IT.

MV1 stated he was travelling westbound on Needham St and was attempting to turn left into the Verizon store when MV2 who was behind him passed him subsequently side swiping him. MV1 further stated that the operator "made eye contact with me after the crash but kept going. MV1 took a photo of MV2's trailer (MA REG C98747). I left a VM with the owner of MV2 requesting a call back. MV1 sustained minor passenger side damage. It is unknown what damage was caused to MV2 and whether it would be to the truck or the trailer. Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): On September 4, 2019, I made contact with the owner of LPS Enterprises, Tony Lisa. Lisa confirmed MA TRN: C98747 is registered to his company. Lisa stated he will look into who was using the trailer on 8/30/19 and will contact me with their information. I spoke with the operator of MV2, John Subilosky (S89884850). Subilosky stated he was operating a 2011 GMC Sierra (MA CON: T58930) with MA TRL:C98747 attached to it on the afternoon of the accident. Subilosky stated he was not aware he was involved in an accident and stated he would have stopped had he known. Subilosky stated there was a bobcat in the trailer at the time of the crash. Subilosky stated there is no damage to the trailer. Due to the size and weight of the trailer attached to MV2, it is reasonable to believe if MV2 made minor contact with MV1, the operator of MV2 would not have been aware. Subilosky has been added to this report as the operator of MV2.

Narrative:
On Tuesday, September 10, 2019 while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to the area of Beacon Street and Roslyn Road, Newton for a report of a motor vehicle/bicycle crash. The weather at the time of the crash was overcast. The road surface was dry. Beacon Street and Roslyn Road are both public ways maintained by the City of Newton. I spoke with the bicyclist involved in the crash, Steven Greenzang (S96615185). Greenzang stated he was traveling Westbound on Beacon Street in the shoulder lane on his black Specialized bicycle. Greenzang had a yellow reflective vest on and was wearing a helmet at this time. Greenzang stated a vehicle in the travel lane to his left drove by him and hit the mirror located on his left handlebar. I observed damage to the mirror. Greenzang report no injuries. I spoke with the operator of MV1, Sarah Bonfanti (S66811372). Bonfanti stated she was parked in front of 1411 Beacon Street waiting to pick up a co-worker that resides at that address. Bonfanti stated a bicycle traveling on the sidewalk to her right crashed into the passenger side door mirror of her 2008 Toyota Scion (MA: 681YH1). Bonfanti stated the bicyclist was acting "crazy" during her interaction with him and he was trying to take her picture. Bonfanti stated she got back into her vehicle and moved up the roadway to wait for police to arrive on scene. I canvassed the area where the accident occurred with Sgt. Dempsey. There was glass from the passenger side mirror of MV1 and Greenzang's bicycle in the main travel lane of the roadway and the shoulder lane where Greenzang stated he was traveling. We also observed a large tree and a telephone pole on the sidewalk next to the roadway where the accident is alleged to have occurred. After speaking with all parties involved, observing the location of the glass in the roadway from the crash, and the location of the tree and telephone pole on the sidewalk where he accident occurred; Greenzang would not have been able to operate his bicycle on the sidewalk and be close enough to the roadway to make contact with MV1. Prior to clearing the accident, I asked Bonfanti if she had any questions and if she wanted to report any injuries. Bonfanti stated she was hit by the bicyclist during her exchange with him and began grabbing her left leg. I asked Bonfanti why she did not inform the officers on scene that she was assaulted. Bonfanti stated she said something to our Dispatch when she called. I asked Bonfanti if her leg was injured. Bonfanti stated I was putting words in her mouth and that she was just scratching her leg. Bonfanti then stated she was hit in the right shoulder. I asked Bonfanti if she would like an ambulance to respond and evaluate her. Bonfanti declined and stated she was more concerned about her mirror. I advised Bonfanti if she wanted to pursue charges against Greenzang she could do so in Newton District Court. I listened to the 9-1-1 recording Bonfanti made in regards to this incident. Bonfanti stated a pedestrian busted out her window. Bonfanti then stated to our dispatcher that the bicyclist lost control of his bicycle and smashed into her car. During her exchange with the our dispatcher, I did not hear Bonfanti say she was physically assaulted by Greenzang.

Narrative:
On September 30, 2019 at approximately 16:56 I responded to a reported hit and run crash at 195 Sumner St. Dispatch gave out a description of the vehicle that fled, described as a red pickup truck with a possible partial plate of" MVNA". I, along with several other units checked the area for the vehicle with negative results. I responded to 195 Sumner St. and spoke with the operator of MV 1, who explained that he was traveling Northbound on Langley Rd onto Sumner St when a red pickup truck attempted to pass the RP from behind. Due to Sumner St being a narrow, one way street, the pickup truck cut back in front of MV1 and struck the front driver's side of MV1 with the rear passenger side of the pickup truck.The pickup truck proceeded down Sumner St. towards Centre St. without attempted to stop. The operator of MV1 did not know the make or model of the vehicle, but described it as a full size pickup truck that was red/maroon with a black tailgate with a large "fox racing" sticker on it. The description of the vehicle that fled was broadcasted to units canvassing the area, but was not found.

Narrative:
On 05/15/2020, at 2100 hours, I responded to the area 399 Washington St. for a single vehicle accident. Upon arrival, I observed a red Toyota Highlander (MA Reg. 82F930) with heavy front end damage from colliding with and knocking down a cement light pole. The operator of the vehicle had fled the scene prior to our arrival. The registered owner is Orlin R. Aguilar. Inside the vehicle were 'Five Star Moving' logs indicating that Aguilar works at 95 Adams St. The route Aguilar would take home from his employer's address to his house in Chelsea would take him past the crash location. Chelsea PD was contacted to check on Aguilar's wellbeing. Ofc. Serrano of CPD located Aguilar in his apartment taking a shower. He appeared intoxicated with redness on his nose and face. Aguilar stated his car was stolen and he had no idea why it would be in Newton. Chelsea PD's wellbeing check was performed over a half hour after the accident and, according to GPS, Aguilar's home is 14 minutes from the crash location. Dispatch contacted Uber and Lyft to inquire if Aguilar was picked up in the area of the crash. There are also surveillance cameras outside of Honda Village across from the crash. Charges are pending further investigation of the ride-share info and surveillance footage. Pictures of the damage to the city pole and vehicle were emailed to IT. Tody's responded and towed the vehicle. Washington St. is a public way maintained by the City of Newton.

Narrative:
On 6/29/2020 at approx 0755Hrs while assigned to 497 I responded to the area of 18 Annawan Rd for a report of a hit and run. Upon arrival I met with resident of 18 Annawan Rd , Andrea Epstein, and her boyfriend Isaiah Mohammed . Epstein stated her fathers vehicle ,MA Reg 315SA6 was parked on the street in front of the home. Isaiah stated he was looking out the window when he witnessed a large black flatbed delivery vehicle backing up attempting to make the turn from Annawan to Waban Av when it struck the Epsteins vehicle, Isaiah stated he made eye contact with the white male driver who realized he had struck the car than accelerated away turning left onto Waban Av. They attempted to get a plate and found possible partial plate of 29866 and saw "Eastern...." imprinted on the side. Isaiah and Andrea related a neighbor whose name they didn't know followed the truck when it fled and got a picture of the license plate and they were awaiting the photo being forwarded to them, they were also going to forward photos from the Ring doorbell that captured the truck. I checked the area for construction sites with recent drop offs. I contacted Andrea who stated she had spoken with her neighbor at 70 Edgfield Rd, Patrick Nuzzi who stated he had just had a delivery of fencing delivered by Eastern Fence of Medford NY and upon seeing the photo from her Ring doorbell confirmed it was the same truck due to the empty spot on the flatbed where his fencing had been . I spoke with Patrick Nuzzi who stated he would get in touch with his contractor Amazing Gardens to get the truck drivers info and registration info. I was contacted via phone by an employee of Eastern Fencing LLC from 631-698-0975 Bob Eggerman , who stated he would review the dash cam footage and forward the operator and registration info. 6/30/2020 driver and reg info forwarded by Eggerman, report updated.

Narrative:
The owner of MV#1 had parked his vehicle at 10:03 in front of 1269 Centre St and returned to his vehicle at 12:00 to discover that it had been struck. Attached to the windshield of MV#1 was a handwritten note from a party that witnessed the accident. MV #1 sustained moderate damages to its front driver's side bumper. I spoke to the witness via telephone and he stated he was travelling southbound on Centre St directly behind MV#2 when he observed MV#2 sideswiped MV#1. The witness then observed the operator of MV#2 got out of his vehicle, looked at the damages to MV#1, retrieved a can of paint from a party standing on the sidewalk, got back into MV#2 and drove away. The witness stated MV#2 was a black colored "Dodge Ram" pick up truck bearing MA REG 2HLR81. The damages to MV#2 should be to its rear passenger side bumper. The witness described the operator of MV#2 as a white male in his 50's, 6' in height with a muscular build. A query of MV#2 showed that it is registered to a female party out of Weymouth MA. I attempted to contact the owner of MV#2 at phone #781 974-0307 and left a voicemail. I spoke to the Weymouth Police Dept and they will attempt to make contact with the owner of MV#2. I was able to speak to the owner of MV#2 and she stated her ex-boyfriend Richard Woodard has possession of MV#2 but does not speak to him often. She does not know Richard's personal information and provided me with his contact number of 617 631-0596. I spoke to Richard and he stated he was contacted by the owner of MV#2 and was already enroute to Police Headquarters. Richard arrived shortly after and he confirmed that he is the operator of MV#2 and was on Centre St retrieving paint earlier. Richard stated he was not aware he struck any other vehicles. I inspected MV#2 and did not observed any damages to its entire right side. I observed some minor scraping marks on the rear passenger side tire of MV#2. The rear passenger tire of MV#2 would be the most likely part of the vehicle that made contact with MV#1 and also consistent with the witness's statements. Based on the statements made to me by Richard and the fact that there were no visible damages to MV#2 besides its rear tire, it is possible that Richard was not aware he made contact with MV#1. All parties involved were provided with this accident report and advised to contact their insurance providers. There were no reported injuries to all parties involved. I will not pursue this matter further.

MV1 side mirror was smashed and glass was inside the vehicle and the operator came in contact with some of the glass due to the driver's side window being open during the time of the collision. MV1 operator, John Mole, spoke with me at his residence after the accident because the operator of MV2 drove away from the scene without giving their information. MV1 operator had some dried blood on his left hand and left leg from the glass of the side mirror but refused medical treatment. He stated that after the crash, both MVs pulled to the side and operator of MV2 came out and said he didnt have his license and said he was in a hurry for an appointment and drove off.

Narrative:
On Sunday, August 22, 2021, I was contacted by Sgt. M. Wade of the Newton Police Traffic Bureau at 0032 hours. Sgt. Wade stated a serious motor vehicle crash occurred on Washington Street in Newton and it involved a City of Newton marked police cruiser (N494). Sgt. Wade stated Officer Katelyn Pohlman and the operator of the other vehicle involved were transported to the hospital with potential serious injuries. I was requested by Sgt. Wade to respond to the scene from my residence and investigate the crash further. On arrival at the scene, I observed the two vehicles involved in the crash to be a 2015 Ford Explorer (MA: 586RT7) and Newton Police marked unit N494 (MA MVN: MP494B). These vehicles were observed disabled on the roadway in front of 612 Washington Street, Newton. There was a large debris field comprised of various parts from both vehicles on the roadway and in the parking lot of 612 Washington Street. The road surface at the time of my arrival was wet and there was light rain falling. Sgt. Wade reported that at the time of the crash the road was completely dry and it had not started to rain yet. Washington Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. The portion of Washington Street where the crash took place supports two- way travel, Eastbound and Westbound. There are two travel lanes in both directions. Travel direction is divided by a double yellow line in the middle of the roadway. The area is well lit and features numerous light poles illuminating the roadway. The closest intersection to this location is Crafts Street just west of the crash location. MV1 (MA: 586RT7) had substantial front-end damage, especially to its front passenger side and was inoperable. I observed this vehicle at its final rest on the roadway with its front end facing Northbound on Washington Street just over the double yellow line in the middle of the roadway. The front and side impact airbags had deployed inside the vehicle as a result of the collision. I did not observe anything hanging inside the vehicle that would have obstructed the view of the operator prior to the collision. MV1 was removed from the roadway by Tody's Towing. MV2 (MA MVN: MP494B) had substantial front end damage and was inoperable. The impact from the collision caused the vehicle to spin uncontrolled and the final rest, with the front end of the vehicle facing the front entrance to the 7-11 (S). The vehicle's final rest was on the sidewalk in front of 612 Washington Street. The front and side impact airbags had deployed inside the vehicle as a result of the collision. I did not observe anything hanging inside the vehicle that would have obstructed the view of the operator prior to the collision. MV2 was removed from the roadway by Tody's Towing. The Officer involved in the crash is Officer Katelyn Pohlman. Officer Pohlman stated she was operating Newton Police marked unit N494 on Washington Street (E) past Crafts Street. Officer Pohlman stated as she was operating her vehicle past 612 Washington Street (7-11), a vehicle in the westbound lane of Washington Street abruptly crossed the double yellow line in the roadway and entered her travel lane head-on. Officer Pohlman stated she did not have an opportunity to react to the vehicle in front of her and the front passenger side of MV1 crashed into the front end of her vehicle (MV2). Officer Pohlman sustained injuries to her left forehead area and both of her arms. Officer Pohlman was later transported to Brigham and Women's Hospital for evaluation and was released a short time later. It was reported to me by numerous Officers on scene that Officer Pohlman exited her cruiser after the crash and rather than tend to her own injuries, she focused her efforts on rendering aid to the operator of the other vehicle involved. Officer Pohlman found the operator of the other vehicle lying on the floor of the front passenger seat under the dash. Officer Pohlman rendered aid to the operator while waiting for Newton Medics to arrive. Officer Pohlman was also assisted in rendering aid to the other operator by Officer Conary and Officer Larson. Officer Larson reported that while interacting with the operator of MV1, the operator repeated numerous times, "Is she ok? Is she ok?". Officer Larson also stated the operator said to him "I feel bad because I was texting on my phone". Officer Larson stated the operator of MV1 works for the Department of Corrections Special Operations Unit and has Department issues equipment inside the vehicle. The following items were placed into Support Services, locker 9 for safekeeping by Officer Larson: 1 Gray Pelican Gun Case, 1 Black Gun Belt, 1 Taser, 1 Can OC Spray, 15 (50) Round Cases Of Ammunition. The operator of MV1 (MA: 586RT7) was identified as Mr. David Cafarelli (S16965940). Mr. Cafarelli was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for a potential head injury before my arrival. I spoke with Mr. Cafarelli at Newton Wellesley Hospital in the Emergency Room with Sgt. Wade. Mr. Cafarelli's mother and father were present when we spoke with him. Mr. Cafarelli stated he was out with friends before the crash and was driving to the 7-11 on Washington Street. Mr. Cafarelli admitted that before the crash, he had his cell phone in his hand while he was operating his vehicle. Mr. Cafarelli stated he does not remember if he was texting or changing the music on his phone at the time of the crash. Mr. Cafarelli stated he looked up and was unable to avoid the vehicle (N494) directly in front of him. Mr. Cafarelli stated he also does not believe he applied his brakes before the collision. When we spoke with Mr. Cafarelli in the Emergency Room, he was still waiting for test results to determine the severity of his injuries. On Monday, August 23, 2021, Sgt. Wade responded to 612 Washington Street, Newton to retrieve surveillance footage from the 7-11 of the crash. 7-11 stated their outside surveillance system was not operating correctly, but they were able to capture some of the incident from a camera inside the store. I observed this footage. MV1 is observed traveling on Washington Street (W) in the westbound travel lane in front of the storefront. MV1's driver side is then observed traveling over the double yellow line in the middle of the roadway and into the eastbound lane of Washington Street. A head on collision ensues and MV1 can be seen rotating counterclockwise in the roadway backwards to its final rest location on Washington Street. MV2 is then observed at its final rest position on the sidewalk facing southbound in front of the 7-11 storefront. After completing my investigation, I have surmised the following. Mr. Cafarelli was operating his 2015 Ford Explorer (MA: 586RT7) in the area of 612 Washington Street, Newton. Mr. Cafarelli was holding his cell phone in his hand while operating his vehicle. Mr. Cafarelli became distracted while he was operating his vehicle due to his attention being focused on his cell phone. Mr. Cafarelli traveled over the double yellow line from the westbound lane of Washington Street and entered the eastbound lane of Washington Street. Newton Police marked unit N494 was traveling on Washington Street (E) in the area of 612 Washington Street at this time. Mr. Cafarelli's vehicle crashed into the front end of Newton Police marked unit N494. Mr. Cafarelli was not wearing a seatbelt and as a result of the impact from the crash, he was ejected from the driver seat and his final rest inside the vehicle was in the flood of the front passenger seat. As a result of my investigation, Mr. Cafarelli was issued Massachusetts Uniform Citation for Chapter 90, Section 13B (Hands-Free Violation), Chapter 89, Section 4a (Marked Lanes Violation), and Chapter 90, Section 13a (Seat Belt Violation). Photos from the crash scene and the surveillance media from 7-11 capturing the crash were submitted to the IT Bureau.

Narrative:
On September 9, 2021 at approximately 10:56 hours I,Officer Guarino, responded to 79 Florence St for a report of a single vehicle crash into a gate and pole. Upon arrival, I observed MV1 with heavy front end damage crashed against a brick structure that holds the iron gate of the property. The gate was detached from the structure and on the sidewalk. The operator of MV1 told me that she was driving northbound towards Florence St when she observed a UPS truck entering the property. Operator of MV1 thought the UPS truck entered her lane of travel and swerved to the right which caused her to crash into the gate and brick structure. The operator of the UPS truck was on scene and had no damage on his vehicle. Multiple witnesses observed the crash who said that the UPS truck was traveling slow and stayed within its lane of travel. A witness said that the operator of MV1 was "flying" through the parking lot and swerved into the gate and structure. I observed the video footage at 79 Florence St where you can see MV1 traveling through the parking lot and it appeared that the UPS truck had already entered the property when MV1 took the corner and MV1 drove into the gate and Brick structure. I emailed the property manager to have the footage emailed to me, so I can attach it to this report. Witnesses, Rich (781)351-0172 and Mario (615) 981-4890 left their information with the UPS driver but I was unable to make contact. The witness I spoke with on scene wanted to remain anonymous.

Narrative:
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.

Narrative:
On 01/03/22 at approximately 1617 hours Officer Robert March and I, Officer Whitney Hyde, were assigned to N499 when we were dispatched to a 2 car MVA at 160 Needham St with no injuries. Both vehicles were waiting in the parking lot. On location I made contact with the operator of Vehicle 1, identified as Samantha LERNER. LERNER stated that the had been travelling southbound on Needham St and stopped in the center left turn lane to turn into the Farm Grill. When it was clear to turn, LERNER began to turn left when Vehicle 2 passed her on the left and made contact with the driver side front quarter panel of Vehicle 1. I observed scrapes and minor damage to Vehicle 1's front bumper and driver side front wheel rim. LERNER stated that the operator of Vehicle 2, later identified as Leanna LANDE, exited her vehicle at the time of the accident and exclaimed that her dog was dying and she was headed to the animal hospital down the road and they could exchange information there. LERNER proceeded to the animal hospital and was waiting for LANDE to come back out. I then entered the animal hospital and made contact with LANDE. LANDE was extremely upset as her 7 week old puppy had just died. LANDE stated that she had been in a panic because of her dying dog and passed LERNER when she shouldn't have, stating it was "stupid." Outside of the animal hospital I observed Vehicle 2 had minor damage along the length of the passenger side, including scrapes with white paint transfer. I issued LANDE MA Uniform Citation #T1448086 in hand for 89/4A Marked Lanes violation and explained the payment and appeal process. LANDE stated she understood. I provided LANDE and LERNER with the accident number and facilitated their exchange of information before clearing without further incident.
