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.

Yellow streaks were visibly seen on the left rear bumper consistent with the damage. The owner of MV 1 further stated that he believed the house across the street, 28 Parsons St is the person that usually plows the driveway. I spoke with Jeffrey Timmins who told me that he in fact did plow the driveway of 27 Parsons St after the storm sometime on Tuesday 12/3/2019. Mr. Timmins admitted to being the operator of MV 2 and stated he did not notice if he hit MV 1 while plowing the driveway but he "could have". I advised both parties with an accident report number.

Narrative:
Operator of vehicle one Waste Management employee David Echeverria stated on 06/01/2020 at 12:11 hours he was driving MA com reg V36945 a 2009 Expedi trash truck south bound on Johnson Pl to pick up trash barbells. John Pl is a dead end public way in the city of Newton. Waste Management is contracted by the city of Newton to collect trash. Echeverria stated that since John Pl is a dead end it is common practice to back the truck in because making a three point turn at the end of the street would not be feasible. Echeverria stated that MA reg 3SH854 a 2012 Nissan was parked unoccupied facing north bound near 12 Johnson Pl. it should be noted that parking is only permitted on Johnson Pl by city of Newton issued permit only. Echeverria stated that while he backed his truck up the front passenger side bumper made contact with the Nissan's front driver's side quarter panel, front driver's side mirror and front driver's side tire. Owner of vehicle two Mandar Kasture stated he parked his vehicle on Johnson Pl without a parking permit. Since Kasture's vehicle was illegally parked , I issued him a verbal warring. I took photos of both vehicles and turned the disk over to the NPD's IT bureau for downing loading.

Narrative:
On 11/08/21 at 14:08 hours while on routine patrol I came across a two car motor vehicle crash in the westbound lane of 667 Commonwealth Avenue. Commonwealth Avenue is a public way owned and maintained by the City of Newton. Both operators were outside of their vehicles at the time and reported no injuries. I observed Vehicle # 1 (Honda Civic MA reg. # 2CWA44) to have heavy front end damage to the bumper and hood area. It was parked back approximately ten feet from Vehicle # 2. Due to the damage and it leaking anti-freeze coolant, Tody's Towing was notified to tow the vehicle away. Vehicle # 2 (Ford EcoSport MA reg. # 2HJV37) was parked in front of Vehicle # 1 and sustained damage to the center and right rear bumper area. It was still driveable. I spoke to the operator of Vehicle # 2 (Maria Bianchi MA D/L # S97972578) and asked her what occurred. She stated that she was traveling westbound on Commonwealth Avenue in her Ford EcoSport (MA # 2HJV37) but was stopped at the time waiting for a vehicle in front of her to make a left turn on to Grafton Street. She was then struck in her rear end by Vehicle # 1. After, I spoke to the operator of Vehicle # 1 (Maria Kuznetsova MA D/L # S48191231) and asked her what occurred. She stated that she was traveling westbound on Commonwealth Avenue in her Honda Civic (MA # 2CWA44) and did not see Vehicle # 2 stopped in traffic due to the sun. She then struck Vehicle # 2 in the rear end. At that time, there was noticeable solar glare in that area of Commonwealth Avenue. This part of Commonwealth Avenue also has a slight curve that you come around and ends at the point where the crash occurred. After, I went back to my cruiser and checked the status of the vehicles and operators through the RMV on my laptop. It showed that Maria Kuznetsova had a expired non renewable driver's license which expired on 07/15/21. Kuznetsova's Honda Civic came back with a status of being unregistered due to revoked insurance. It was revoked on 08/29/21 through the MA RMV. I issued MA Uniform Citation # 185998AB in hand to her for Ch. 90/10/A Unlicensed Operation of a Motor Vehicle, Ch. 90/9/B Unregistered Motor Vehicle, and Ch. 90/34J Uninsured Motor Vehicle and explained the process to her. Motor Vehicle Inventory Tow Form submitted.

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.

Nobody on scene or Honda Village employees could identify the truck. Both vehicles towed by Todys. Operator to vehicle #2 was transported to Saint Elizabeths Hospital with head and hip injuries.

Vehicle 1 was waiting in southbound traffic at the traffic light for the intersection of Woodward St and Boylston St when the operator realized he was in the wrong turn lane. Vehicle 1 then attempted to reverse to give him room between him and the vehicle in front of him so he could change lanes, however he did not notice Vehicle 2 waiting in traffic behind him. Vehicle 1 then backed into Vehicle 2, causing minor damage to the rear bumper of Vehicle 1 and significant damage to the front end of Vehicle 2. Both operators gave similar accounts.
