On 2/1/19 I was working N496 when I responded to a 2 car MVA at 15 Cypress St. with a road rage incident ( incident # 19004330). Upon arrival I spoke with Edward Macaleese. Macaleese stated MA reg 2EE232 (being operated by Fabian Castillo) was tailgating him while traveling southbound on Cypress St. so he pulled to the side to allow him to pass. After Castillo passed Macaleese he slammed on his brakes causing Macaleese to rear end Castillo. I spoke with Castillo who stated that he was traveling southbound on Cypress St. when the vehicle in front of him (Macaleese) began driving "much slower than the speed limit". Castillo stated the Macaleese pulled over to allow him to pass, after Castillo began to slow in traffic due to a vehicle pulling out. Macaleese struck Castillo from behind. Both parties stated they were not injured. Both vehicle were still drive able. Both parties were provided an accident report number.

Narrative:
On Thursday 2/21/19 at approximately 0653 while assigned to marked unit N499 I was travelling westbound on Nahanton Street when I observed a motor vehicle pulled over to the right side of the road with its emergency flashers on. I pulled behind the vehicle and spoke with the operator, FINCH Robert L, who states that he was travelling Westbound on Nahanton Street and due to the weather conditions he lost control of his vehicle and slid into utility pole #14. There was very minimal damage done to the utility pole, however FINCH's car was disabled due to the collision. The weather conditions were poor as it was raining and there were several inches of snow on the ground from a storm that morning causing the roads to be slushy and slippery. FINCH was uninjured and stated that he had AAA on the way to tow his motor vehicle.

Narrative:
On the above date/time I responded to the area of Cherry Street and Webster Street for a three motor vehicle crash with injuries. Upon arrival along with Sgt. Dempsey, Fire/medics. I spoke with the operator of vehicle one. He stated he was stopped on Webster Street facing westbound a the red traffic signal. He further stated the traffic signal on Webster Street turned green, he accelerated forward. He stated vehicle two traveled north on Cherry Street at a high rate of speed through the red traffic signal. He stated he had no reaction time due to the speed of vehicle two and had impact. I spoke to the operator of vehicle two. He stated he was traveling north on Cherry Street going too fast, he stated he thought it was a school zone so he slowed down and he did not observe the color of the traffic signal. He stated he observed vehicle one come out of the Webster Street at the last second at impact. I spoke with the operator of vehicle three. She stated only remembered being stopped on Cherry Street facing south. She stated she did not remember what color the traffic signal was, just knew she was stopped when she felt heavy impact from vehicle two. Injuries: Oper of V1 none at this time- patient refusal Oper of V2 none at this time - patient refusal Oper of V3 Head laceration and head trauma, transported to Newton- Wellesley Hospital Tody's towing arrived on scene and towed vehicles two, three to their tow lot. All proper paper work was done for a towed vehicle(s). All parties advised of the process. After the vehicles were towed, and the scene was cleared I watched the cycling of the traffic signals in the intersection and observed they were functioning properly. It appears a this time based on statements and physical characteristics of the impact area on the roadway, that vehicle two went through the red light on Cherry Street, which caused the crash.

Narrative:
Mrs. Weiss stated that she was attempting to back out of her driveway at 285 Crafts Street when her vehicle accelerated for no reason "like a bat out of hell." The vehicle then crossed Crafts street at a high rate of speed, jumped the curb, crossed the large grass island, and only stopped when the vehicle crashed into a tree. Mrs. Weiss was uninjured and signed a patient refusal. The vehicle sustained moderate damage to the tires, undercarriage, and rear bumper and was towed from the scene by Todys. Photos were taken of the damaged city tree and were placed in the IT bureaus mailbox to be attached to this report. Based on the facts that Mrs. Weiss could not explain the reason for the cars acceleration, the distance the vehicle traveled without stopping, and the close proximity of the crash to an elementary and middle school I filed a request for Immediate Threat License Suspension/Revocation. All proper paperwork as well as a copy of this report were faxed to the Registry of Motor Vehicles.

Narrative:
On 6/27/20 at 1742 I responded with multiple units, NFD and medics for a report of a MVA with injuries on Nahanton St. Upon arrival I observed NH Reg 4539251 wrapped around Verizon utility pole 6/15 facing eastbound on Nahanton St. The operator and the passenger behind the operator were trapped inside the vehicle. The front right passenger was able to get out of the car. Multiple witnesses stated that the vehicle was traveling WB and when it came around the bend in the road the operator lost control and spun clockwise into the pole. The vehicle ultimately rested facing the direction it came from, eastbound. NFD responded and was able to free the remaining two passengers from the vehicle. All passengers were transported to Beth Israel Boston for treatment. While on scene, I spoke with the passenger from the front seat who stated they were traveling westbound towards Needham and the operator just lost control around the bend due to the wet surface. There were no other vehicles involved in the accident, Tody's responded to tow the vehicle. Verizon was notified of their utility pole being damaged. Pictures were taken of the scene and turned over to IT to be uploaded to this report. I responded to the hospital to follow up with the occupants but was only allowed to speak with the passengers and not the operator as he was in critical condition with a broken femur and head injuries. The rear passenger stated that he didn't think his son, the operator, was going that fast but he lost control around the bend, he was suffering from neck pain and is in fair condition. The passenger in the front seat suffered minor/unknown leg injuries but hospital staff believed he would be discharged tonight.

Narrative:
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.
