At approximately 0550HRs on Thursday, February 07, 2019, I was dispatched to the intersection of Washington St. at Centre St. for a report of a two car MVA. Upon arrival, I spoke with the operator of MV1 (CT Pass: 981YJX) who stated she was in the rotary and was attempting to switch lanes by the concrete island to enter I90 Eastbound.

The OP. of MV#2 states he was sanding Cornell Street and was doing a U-turn at the intersection of Moulton Street.

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.

No traffic cones were located near the air compressor. To the right of the air compressor were thick green bushes. A wooden fence was located to the right side of the green bushes. On the east side of Ireland Rd I observed a large excavated hole on the right side of the roadway. The hole was near the intersection of Eastbourne Rd and was located approximately three feet from the curb. I observed four traffic cones, two on the front side and two on the left side of the hole. Located on the front edge of the hole was a tire print. Vehicle 1 was located on the west end of Ireland Rd. The front passenger tire of Vehicle 1 had fresh dirt located on the sidewalls and the tire tread. Vehicle 1 appeared to have no visible damage. The pedestrian (Terrio) was being treated by EMS and Fire for injuries. Terrio was wearing brown pants and a green reflective safety vest. I spoke with the operator of Vehicle 1 Barbara Ball. Ball stated that she was operating Vehicle 1 northbound on Eastbourne Rd near the intersection of Ireland Rd. Ball stated that she made a right turn onto Ireland Rd and drove on to the edge of the excavated hole. Ball stated that her vehicle then made impact with Terrio who was in the hole. Ball stated that she immediately stopped, backed out of the hole and called 911. Ball stated that prior to making a right turn onto Ireland Rd, there were no traffic cones in the roadway or next to the hole. Ball stated that as she made the right turn onto Ireland Rd she did not observe Terrio or the hole until it was too late. Ball states that she resides at 80 Eastbourne Rd which is the residence located to the immediate right of the crash location. Ball states that she had been recently parking on Ireland Rd due to ongoing construction at her residence. Ball states that she was traveling at a slow speed prior to impact. At the time of the crash there were three other Feeney Brothers employees working at the site. These workers were identified as Steven Gamble, Mike Cabrinma and Gerard McComaskey. At the time of the crash all three workers were located further up Eastbourne Rd near the intersection of Coolidge Rd and did not observe the crash. At the time of the crash, Newton Police Sergeant Glenn Chisholm was working a paid detail for Feeney Brothers. Sergeant Chisholm stated that he did not observe the crash.Terrio was transported by Cataldo EMS for minor injuries. Several photos were taken of the scene. Photos were taken of the hole with traffic cones and without traffic cones. All photo's were submitted to the IT Bureau. After clearing the scene, I responded to St Elizabeth's Hospital in Brighton, MA to interview Terrio. Terrio stated that at the time of the crash he was standing in the hole on Ireland Rd performing gas utility work. Terrio stated that the front passenger side bumper of Vehicle 1 struck him in the right shoulder. Terrio stated that the impact caused him to lose his balance and fall down in the hole. Terrio states that after falling down he was able to climb out of the hole without assistance. Terrio stated that at the time of impact he was wearing a white hard hat which he thinks struck the pavement on the edge of the hole. Terrio states that at the time of the crash he was working alone in the hole. Terrio states that at the time of the crash traffic cones were located near the hole. Terrio stated that as a result of the impact he sustained minor injuries to his right shoulder and back. I then observed Terrio's hard hat which appeared to have a fresh scrape mark on the top. The hard hat also had broken interior straps. Terrio stated that the straps broke when he was struck by Vehicle 1. Photos were taken of the hard hat and were submitted to the IT Bureau. After reviewing all facts of this incident, Vehicle 1 appeared to have been traveling at a slow speed prior to the crash. This was evident due to the lack of tire skid marks prior to the tire print on the edge of the hole. It also appears that Ball's view of the hole and Terrio may have been obstructed by the parked air compressor on Eastbourne Rd. The thick green bushes and a wooden fence to the right of the air compressor also added to the obstructed view. The hole was also located in close proximity to the air compressor which reduced Vehicle 1's reaction time. Jeff Oliver of OSHA was also notified of this incident. Photographs of the scene were provided to Oliver.

Operator #1 stated he was driving w/b on Watertown St just passing the Village Bank, #411 Watertown St when vehicle #2 backed out of the Village Bank parking lot causing the crash.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Upon speaking to the operator of MV2, they stated they were traveling straight on Beacon St. (eastbound). At this time, their windshield fogged and they could not see out of it. They continue to drive straight, while attempting to adjust the HVAC controls to clear up the windshield. They then proceeded into the intersection and were struck by MV1. They stated they did not know the color of their traffic signal, as they were looking down at said controls. Neither party were injured. Newton Fire applied speedy dry to the fluids. Todys removed both vehicles. I cleared without further incident and completed NPD Towed Motor Vehicle Forms for each vehicle.

Operator of MV1 said he was traveling south bound on Adams street and a vehicle traveling north bound had it's high beams on.

Ms Ryan had sustained a head injury so I wasn't able to get a clear statement.

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.
