On January 1, 2019 at approximately 02:18 hours I, Officer Guarino, responded to 78 Vine St. for a hit and run. I spoke to the operator of MV1, who told me that he was driving Eastbound on Vine St, he turned on his left directional and began to pull into his driveway at 78 Vine St. The operator of MV 2 attempted to pass MV 1 on the left hand side crashing into MV1. MV2 put the vehicle in reverse and left the scene. The operator of MV1 said that the front bumper of MV2 had fallen off in the collision with MA License plate 4KZ917 still attached. The owner of that vehicle lives in Boston, so Boston Police were notified. I attempted to make contact with the owner of MV 2 with negative results. Update January 1, 2019 16:15 hours: I was able to contact the owner of MV2, who admitted that she was the operator of the vehicle and that she was in the vehicle alone. The operator of MV2 said that the operator of MV1 was driving very slow and stopped in the right lane so she attempted to pass the vehicle. MV1 began turning and MV2 struck MV1. The operator of MV 1 said that she was nervous and left the scene because her phone died and attempted to contact the Newton Police in the morning. I am mailing citation T1441275 to Cecelia Spangenberg for MGL90/24C, leaving the scene of property damage. Photographs of the bumper have been submitted to IT to be attached to this report. The license plate was logged into evidence and placed into property and evidence locket #8.

On Saturday, January 12th 2019, at approximately 4:12pm, I, Officer Brooks, responded to a single vehicle accident in the area of Cherry street and Derby street, both of which are public ways in the city of Newton. Upon arrival in the area I observed the fire department off with MV1(MA REG 9PAK20), in front of 171 Cherry street. The vehicle had a fire hydrant lodged under the front axle, and front end damage. The fire department was attempting to wake the operator who was unresponsive. The fire department ended up administering 2 doses of Narcan to the operator before he became responsive. The operator was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital by Cataldo for further evaluation. Based on the accident scene, it appears the operator was traveling southbound on Cherry street, crossed over the center line into oncoming traffic, striking the fire hydrant in front of 154 Cherry street, and then crossed back over into the correct lane of traffic before coming to rest in front of 171 Cherry street. The vehicle was towed by Tody's towing, and an inventory form was filled out and filed. The operator was mailed MA Uniform Citations T0648078 and T0648079 charging him with MGL 89/4A Marked Lanes violation, 90/24 OUI Drugs, 90/24(2)(A) Operating to Endanger/Negligent operation, 90/11 No License in Possession, and 90/11 No Registration in Possession. Officer Donahue took pictures of the fire hydrant and crash scene, which have been submitted to the IT Bureau. The fire department was made aware of the broken hydrant.

MA commercial reg M94754 (vehicle #1), a City of Newton pickup/sander truck, was located crashed over the curb in front of 1970 Beacon St. The vehicle was unoccupied, had the keys in the ignition, and was reported stolen just a few minutes prior to discovery. The reporting party of the stolen truck and uninvolved occupant is identified as City DPW worker George Sementelli. The witness/passerby who discovered the collision is also a DPW worker, identified as Donny Brandt. Pursuant to an investigation outlined in incident #19002213, the operator at the time of the crash was determined to be Michael Carter. It is believed that Carter stole the vehicle from 295 Auburn St, fled the area, and ultimately crashed in front of 1970 Beacon St. Corroborating facts outlined in the incident report put Carter as the operator. The vehicle itself was located partially on the sidewalk and partially on the road, therefore Carter is being cited with MGL 89/4A - Marked Lanes Violation (T1268423). Due to the fact it is believed that Carter fled the scene after the crash, MGL 90/24/C - Leaving the Scene of Property Damage was added as well as MGL 90/23/D Operating After a Suspended LIcense, and MGL 90/24/O - Reckless Operation of a Motor Vehicle. The crash occurred during busy weekday commuting about 0.7 miles from Angier Elementary School. The last 3 charges mentioned have been listed on a second citation (T1268422). Officer Brooks also issued T0648082 for OUI Drugs MGL 90/24/G. See the incident report for details about this charge. In total, there are (3) citations issued to Carter. The vehicle sustained heavy front end damage. It should be noted that the utility pole a couple of houses down from the crash site (Beacon/Varick Rd, pole #212) sustained fresh, minor superficial damage, consistent with the vehicle crashing into it before verring onto the sidewalk. Pictures have been taken and submitted to the IT bureau. Tody's responded and towed the vehicle to the police garage for processing due to the pending other criminal charges involved in this accident/incident. Michael Carter was subsequently placed under arrest and his citations have been placed into his property. Carter suffered a hand injury due to the crash an was transported to NWH Hospital for an evaluation after he was booked.

At approximately 0110HRs on Sunday February 17, 2019, I was dispatched to the area of Dedham St. and Spiers Rd. (both public ways in the City of Newton), for a report of a motor vehicle vs pole accident with injury, airbag deployment and entrapment. Upon arrival, I exited my cruiser with my medical bag and AED and went to assist the motorist involved in the crash. MV1 (MA Passenger: 255ZA9) was completely off the roadway and on the shoulder of the road (facing Eastbound) with its nose contacting the light pole ( Verizon Pole #:103/80), which was now broken and listing to the side. Attempts to open the doors were unsuccessful and I attempted to communicate with the operator through a partially broken driver's window frame which was bent. The operator was slumped forward with his hand cradling his head and he was unable to speak, but was breathing. Newton Fire arrived and attempted to gain access to the vehicle via several manual tools with no success and instead deployed the Jaws of Life which was successful. Newton Fire also made entry into the rear passenger compartment because we viewed a child's car seat and checked with negative results for any child in the vehicle. Once the operator was cut out of his seatbelt and safely out of MV1 and on board Newton Medic 1, I entered the ambulance where he was identified as Mark Topham. It should be noted that Topham was having difficulty answering basic questions such as his name, date of birth, today's date, Etc. At one point when he was asked what today's date was, he gave his birth date of February 21, 1983 and it took him several attempts to say his last name, I had to run him over the air with a partial name to ascertain who he is. Also of note, in my presence and that of Sgt. Devine, Topham informed the medics that he had been consuming alcoholic beverages prior to the crash. Upon viewing the scene, I noted that the roadway was lit and I did not observe any skid marks on the dry, ice-free payment, indicating that there was unlikely any braking or swerving to avoid the collision. I spoke to the reporting party, Lindsay Giardina, she stated that she was traveling on Dedham St. when she heard what she believed to be a motor vehicle crash. When she came upon said crash, she attempted to assist the operator, as she was an off duty firefighter. She was unable to gain access to the inside of the vehicle, but communicated to the operator in the same manor as I did. She stated that she was able to smell the odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from the operator. Topham was transported to Beth Israel of Boston, where he was assigned patient record number 3109921. I attempted to speak with him at the hospital, but was unable to do so because of his current state; I noted several injuries on Topham, such as a bloody lip, a wound to his lower left side and a wound to his left leg. Due to Topham's statements onboard of Medic 1 and Lindsay Giardina's observations, I will be charging Topham with one count of violating MGL Ch.90 S. 24 K OUI Liquor 2nd Offence, one count of violating MGL Ch.90 S. 24 E Negligent Operation of a Motor Vehicle and one count of violating MGL Ch. 89 S. 4A Marked Lanes Violation via MA Criminal Citations which I placed in the mail. Additionally, I will be seeking a subpoena for Topham's blood work from the hospital. Note: The crash occurred on the Newton/Boston line, Newton dispatch's GPS indicated that the crash was in Newton. I took several pictures of the scene and have forwarded them to IT to be attached to this report. I completed and filled an NPD Motor Vehicle Tow Inventory Form and Officer Boudrot stood by for the tow.

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.

On 06/08/2019 at 0150 hours I received a call from Sgt Lee in regard to a head on motor vehicle crash with entrapment that had occurred on Center St at the four way intersection with Cabot St and Sergeant St. Upon my arrival at the crash scene I was advised by Sgt Lee that all occupants of the involved vehicles had been transported to hospitals for treatment. I made the following observations of the crash scene , Center St is a two lane public way in the city of Newton that runs north to south. I observed a city of Newton contracted Cataldo ambulance stopped in the south bound lane of Center St at Cabot St. The ambulance was MA AMN registration AMB 370 a 2017 Ford Econo Line that had heavy damage to the front end and driver's side fender. I observed that the front tire of the ambulance was snapped off and was pushed back towards the driver's side door. I further observed that both of the front and side air bags of the ambulance were deployed. The front of the ambulance's final point of rest was 8'8" from a fixed overhead light pole on the northeast corner of Center St at Cabot St. The ambulance's front passenger side tire was 4'3" front the curb on the Cabot St side. The ambulance's rear passenger side tire was 2'3" from the Cabot St side curb. The ambulance's rear driver side tire was 5'1" from the double yellow line on Center St. The ambulance's front driver side tire was 6'3"from the Center St double yellow line. The width of Center St from the double yellow line to the Center St curb is 15'' and 16'" to the Sergeant St side. I observed a 2011 Mazda 3 with MA PAN registration 6KJ783 facing south bound in the north bound lane. The Mazda had heavy damage to it's front end, and I observed that it's front tires had snapped off. The Mazda's roof had been removed by Newton Fire to extract the occupant. The front of the Mazda's final point of rest was 40'3" from a fixed overhead light pole on the northeast corner of Center St and Sergeant St. The Mazda's front passenger tire was 4'6" from the double yellow line on Center St. The Mazda's rear passenger side tire was 7'6" from the Center St double yellow line. The Mazda's rear passenger side tire was 1'2" from the Center St double yellow line. The Mazda's front driver's side tire was on the curb on the Sergeant St side of Center St. There were no skid marks from the Mazda which indicates that no braking occurred. At the time of the crash, the Cataldo Ambulance was being operated by Paramedic Corey Bohan and Paramedic Tom White was in the front passenger seat. Bohan stated that he was operating his vehicle southbound on Center St towards Cabot St after clearing a medical call. There were no patients in the ambulance at the time of the crash, and Bohan estimated he was travelling 25 MPH . Bohan stated within less than two seconds he observed a vehicle traveling towards him northbound on Center St in the southbound lane and estimated it's speed to be approximately 80 to 100 MPH.Bohan stated he was able to slow to a near stop and had moved his vehicle towards the right shoulder on Center St before the Mazda struck his vehicle head on. Bohan stated that after forcing his way out of the driver's seat of his vehicle, he rendered medical aid to the operator and only occupant of the Mazda, Jessica Pondish. Bohan stated that Pondish speech was slurred and he detected an odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from her breath and person. Bohan was later transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for evaluation. The passenger in the ambulance, Tom White stated to officers that he was working on the ambulance's laptop computer and did not see anything leading up to the impact from the crash. White stated that he was able to force himself free of the passenger side of the ambulance, and rendered medical aid to Pondish. White stated that Pondish was " in and out of it " and did not appear coherent.White stated that he asked Pondish if she had consumed any alcoholic beverage and she nodded in the affirmative. White Stated that he was unsure if Pondish understood his questions. White stated that he did not detect any odor of an alcohol beverage emanating from Pondish's breath or person. White was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for evaluation. Pondish was freed from her vehicle after approximately 22 minutes by Newton Fire Department units by utilizing special extraction tools. Pondish was transported by Newton Medic Unit Two to the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston for treatment. From 06/08/2019 to 06/10/2019 Pondish had two surgeries and was unable to speak due to her condition. On 06/10/2019 myself and Officer Gaudet were able to speak with Pondish in her hospital ICU room at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. Pondish's parents Lorena and John Pondish were present while we spoke with her. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish about the events that led up to the crash. Pondish stated that on 06/07/2019 she was at a friend's residence in Norton, MA. Pondish stated that while at her friend's residence she consumed a bottle and a half of Riesling wine. After Pondish's admission myself and Officer Gaudet stopped our conversation with her. I read Pondish her rights directly from a Miranda card and explained them in full before allowing her to continue speaking with myself and Officer Gaudet about the events of that led to the crash. Pondish stated that she understood her rights. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish if she had consumed any alcoholic beverages prior to driving home to her residence in Newton. Pondish stated that she drank a bottle and a half of Riesling wine by herself between the hours of 1700 and 0000 hours on 06/08/2019. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish how large the bottles of wine was that she drank, and she stated that they were average size. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish how she perceived her state of being was after consuming a bottle and a half of wine. Pondish stated that she felt " buzzed " . Pondish stated that she left her friend's residence in Norton at approximately 0100 hours on 06/08/2019 to return to her residence in Newton.

Pondish stated that her seat belt was on and that she was not texting while operating her vehicle. Pondish stated that her injuries consisted of a broken left elbow and internal injures to her intestines. On 06/09/2019 I spoke to Cataldo Paramedic Robert Canning and Stephen Heirholcer who were the medic unit that transported Pondish to the Brigham and Women's Hospital. Canning stated that he rendered medical aid to Pondish for approximately 20 minutes while Fire units worked to free her. Canning stated that Pondish's legs were pinned under her vehicle's dashboard. Canning stated that during the approximately 20 minutes that he was in close proximity to Pondish he could detect a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage that was emanating from her breath and person. Canning stated that once Pondish was freed he continued to treat and monitor her during the transport to the Brigham and Women's Hospital. Canning stated that when he asked Pondish if she had consumed any alcoholic beverage she stated that she had. Paramedic Heirholcer stated that he did not detect any odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from Pondish's breath or person. Based upon the physical evidence at the crash scene, and statements made to officers by all of the above mentioned persons, Pondish is being charged with violation of MGLs 90/24j OUI liquor, 90/24e negligent operation of a motor vehicle, 89/4a failure to stay within marks lanes, and 90/17 speeding.

On Thursday 04/16/2020 at approximately 2306 hrs I was dispatched to a hit and run accident in the area of 320 Washington St. Upon arrival I observed debris all over the roadway including a City one way street sign, a City utility light pole along with a Metropolitan MWRA vent. The RP mentioned to dispatch he observed headlights driving away from the scene and believed it was a black vehicle once he exited his residence and observed the vehicle parts in the roadway.The vehicle later identified as a 2020 Toyota Rav 4 black in color bearing MA.REG (97E520) was not on scene of the accident. Shortly after I responded on scene the vehicle involved was located nearby by N-494 at the intersection of Washington St. at Adams St. The vehicle was registered to a Evgenii Shatokhin with heavy right front end damage along with the left front, and both rear tires deflated. Mr. Shatokhin stated he was the operator of the vehicle and I asked what happened back at 320 Washington St. He stated he was driving Westbound on Washington St. when he swerved to avoid something and hit the curb. Once he hit the curb, he stated he then hit the sign, light pole and MWRA vent. Due to Mr. Shatokhin not remaining on scene of the accident and leaving he is being charged with Ch. 90 Sec. 24 (Leaving the scene of an accident, property damage). Failed to remain on scene after accident occured involving property damage. He is also being charged with Ch. 89 Sec. 4A (Marked Lanes) for failure to drive entirely within. Citation #T2014768 was given in hand to Mr. Shatokhin. MV1 sustained heavy right front end damage. No injuries. Tody's responded on scene and towed MV1. A towed motor vehicle form was filled out and placed on file. Pictures were taken on scene of the property damage and placed into the IT Bureau's box.

The OP. of MV#1 was unable to give me a statement due to a possible head injury. He kept repeating "where's my car" and "what happened?" Witness#1 (Mr. Regan) states he was travelling westbound on Auburn St. when MV#1 went to the oncoming traffic lane and passed him on the left at a high rate of speed. He estimates the speed at 70mph. He saw MV#1 hit the speed bump on Auburn St., possibly losing control, and then onto Evergreen Ave. with a large cloud of dust. Witness#2(Mr. Weishaus) was on his balcony and observed MV#1 travel at a high speed of rate on Auburn St. He estimates the speed at 100mph. He observed MV#1 go up Evergreen Ave., launch into the air and crashed. Witness#3(Mr. Litvak) states he was on his porch and heard a loud sound of a motor engine approaching. MV#1 then crashed into his retainer wall and flew through some trees before landing on his neighbor's yard. Based on witness statements and the accident scene, it appears that MV#1 went off the roadway and struck a retainer wall at #15 Evergreen Ave, launched into the air and struck parked MV#2 in the process, went through some trees that flipped the car around before landing on the property of #23 Evergreen Ave. The OP. of MV#1 was ejected from the vehicle at some point in time. Pictures were taken of the accident scene.

On Thursday, June 11th 2020, at approximately 9pm, I, Officer Brooks, responded to 92 North street for a report of a car into a utility pole. Upon my arrival I observed MV1(MA REG 1HRN55) on the side of the road with heavy damage to the majority of the vehicle. I spoke with the operator who stated that he was traveling northbound on North street when his steering wheel stopped functioning as he approached a bend in the road. The operator stated he left the roadway striking a utility pole, and rolling his car at least 3 times. The operator was complaining of leg pain and dizziness and was transported to NWH by Cataldo for further evaluation. MV1 was towed by Tody's and an inventory form was filed. Eversource was notified for significant damage to the utility pole. Pictures were taken and submitted to the IT bureau.

MV1 was travelling NB on Hammond St and crossed the southbound lane and drove off the side of the road and struck fire hydrant as shown in diagram. MV1 was towed from scene by Tody's towing.

At approximately 1735HRs on Saturday, August 29, 2020, I was dispatched to 14 Elliot St. (Sunoco Gas Station) for a report of a two car MVA with one party refusing to exchange RMV information. Upon arrival, I spoke with the operator of MV1 (MA Pass: 6GT965), who stated that he was stationary in his vehicle at pump 3, when the operator of MV2 reversed into his vehicle after refueling at pump 5, which is directly in front of pump 3. The operator of MV2 got out of her vehicle and began to yell at him and refused to give him her RMV information, claiming he hit her. The operator of MV1 stated that he called the police and the operator of MV2 subsequently left the scene prior to my arrival. Officer Keefe (N495) attempted to raise the registered owner of MV2 (MA Pass: 2KWK11) at her residence with negative results and dispatch was unable to find a cell phone for her. I was able to speak with witness 1, who concurred with the operator of MV1's version of events. After speaking with witness 1, the operator of MV1 and viewing his video he recorded on his phone showing a party believed to be the owner/operator of MV2 entering her vehicle (Caucasian Female with the same light/strawberry blonde hair, as seen in her RMV photo), I have issued her MA Criminal Citation T2015042 for violating one count of MGL Ch. 90 S. 24. (Leaving The Scene Of Property Damage) and mailed it to her address. Note: the cameras at the gas station are not operational at this time and a copy of the aforementioned video has been forwarded to IT to be attached to this report.

On Friday, September 18, 2020, at 88update88approximately 0657 hrs, while assigned to N495, I was dispatched to the area of 1221 Centre St for a report of a MV accident. When I arrived on scene I observed a Motor Cycle (MC) laying on its side in the middle of the street. I observed a party laying on the ground, while medical personnel were tending to him. I also observed a white Honda (MV#1) pulled off to the side of Pelham St, and the operator standing next to his vehicle. Operator of MV#1 stated that as he was attempting to make a left turn off of Centre St, onto Pelham St. Operator of MV#1 stated that while he was in the middle of his turn, he observed a MC driving at a high rate of speed coming towards him. Operator of MV#1 stated that he was not able to get out of the way of the MC before it crashed into him I was not able to speak with the operator of the MC, due to him being transported to Brigham and Womens Hospital. Ofc McSweeney stated that he will be following up with the operator of the MC and will advise me. It should be noted that the operator of the MC appeared to be wearing headphones while operating, picture was taken and submitted. An anonymous party stated to me that he observed the MV traveling at a high rate of speed, heading North on Centre St. The party stated that he observed the MC weaving in and out of traffic. Multiple pictures were taken of MV#1 and MC and were submitted to IT to be attached to this report. Operator of MC was transported to Brigham and Womens. Operator of MV#1 was cleared with a patient refusal. Both vehicles were towed by Todys. **UPDATE** I spoke with the father of Scott Mahon, Keith Mahon.

Keith stated that the injuries his son received are a Open Tibia/Fibula fracture of the right leg, and a concussion. Keith stated that Scott has no recollection of the incident, as far as to not remembering leaving the house that morning.

On 9/27/20 I was Working N497 when I responded to an MVA with rollover in the area of Chestnut and Beacon St. along with multiple other units. Upon arrival at 565 Chestnut St. (which is a publicway in the city of Newton) I spoke with the operator of Veh 1 Jenna Wolf. Wolf stated that she was traveling northbound on Chestnut St. when a Vehicle traveling southbound swerved at her causing her to swerve to the left causing her to jump the curb and collide with a parked car. Wolf stated the car then rolled over and she was able to climb out on her own. Wolf had a laceration to the head that was bleeding so Newton Medics transported her to NWH for treatment. Wolf had a moderate smell of alcoholic beverages emanating from her person and glassy eyes and was slurring her words. Wolf was not asked to do field sobriety due to her injuries. The first parked car (Veh 2) that was struck by Veh 1 slid across the driveway and struck Veh 3, also causing damages to the driveway and yard. The Vehicles owner Vladimir Berezovsky was notified and provided a report number. Veh 2, and Veh 3 were disabled and towed away by Todys at the owners request. A witness named Reza Dana spoke with Ofc. T Keefe and stated "We were traveling down Beacon St. and had a green light at the intersection of Chestnut St. when two cars came speeding northbound on Chestnut St. and ran the red light at Beacon St. almost killing him". Then one of the cars went off the road and struck a parked car causing it to rollover. Veh 1 came back through dispatch as unregistered. Due to the fact that it was a residental area, the vehicle almost struck a home and the witness statment, Wolf was issued a Ma Uniform Citation T2080019 for 90/24/j Oui, 90/24/E MV Negligent Operation, 90/9/b Unregistered, 90/17/A Speeding. Pictures were taken by Ofc Keefe and submitted to IT.
