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.

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.

On 1/21/19 I was working N498 when I responded to 17 Charles River Ter for a report of a Cab that had struck a wall. Upon arrival I met with Pema Jigmey and Miriam Jost. Jost stated that Pema who was driving for Metro Cab (or Photo Cab) picked her up at the airport and brought her home. Once at her home 17 Charles River Ter, she asked him to back into the driveway due to the snow and ice conditions. While backing up in the driveway of 17 Charles River Ter the vehicle struck the residencet causing damage. Pema stated the same thing but believed Jost was half to blame due to the fact she asked him to be dropped in the driveway. I informed Pema that he drove the vehicle into the house and so was at fault. The house only appeared to suffer minor cosmetic damages but could not be accurately examined. Pema and Jost exchanged information in the hopes of settling the damages without insurance. Both parties were satisfied and provided a report number. Both parties stated they were uninjured and refused medical attention.

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.

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.

Centre Street and Washington Street are both public ways in the City of Newton. At the time of the accident the weather was cloudy with light rain. The road conditions were fairly dry. I spoke to the operator of MV1 identified as Julie Lym (S16060051) who stated she was traveling northbound on Washington Street onto the Centre Street bridge. MV1 stated she was attempting to cut across lanes to merge on to the Mass Pike Westbound. MV1 stated traffic was at a standstill and she saw an opening to change lanes. MV1 stated MV2 was stopped in front of her and as she attempted to change lanes her vehicle side swiped the rear drivers side corner of the school bus. The operator of MV1 reported no injuries. MV1 sustained minor damage and was able to leave the scene. I spoke with the operator of MV2 identified as Antonio Mendes Goncalves (S54275868) who stated he was stopped at the red light in the right middle lane on the Centre Street bridge. MV2 stated MV1 attempted to change lanes and struck the rear drivers side corner of the school bus. MV2 sustained minor damage and the operator reported no injuries.

The operator of MV#1 states that she was traveling north on Melrose St from Auburn St when she encountered a large flat bed truck blocking the roadway in front of #283 Melrose St, which is currently under construction. The operator of MV#1 states she then spoke with an individual whom she believes to be Steven Vona of Vona Construction who is currently developing the site at #283 Melrose St. According to operator #1, Mr. Vona told her she needed to turn around immediately, which she attempted to do when the front of her MV struck a raised sidewalk causing damage to the front of her MV. Operator #1 was very concerned that there was no signage or personnel from Vona Construction directing motorist where to go and feels he is responsible for the damage to her MV as he was the one informing her she needed to leave the "construction zone" immediately. She further states that no one assisted her in turning around, her view was obstructed because her MV is so low to the ground and that a construction truck was blocking the nearest driveway, making it even more difficult to maneuver. As I entered Melrose St from Comm Ave when I arrived I observed no signage and MV's were having to turn around. I informed Steven Vona that if he was going to temporarily block the street to unload equipment he needed to either use cones, signs or workers to assist drivers. In regards to the crash, Mr. Vona stated that as operator #1 attempted to turn her MV around the front of her MV struck the sidewalk. Photographs of the sidewalk area where the crash occurred taken by Traffic Officer M.McSweeney

The operator of MV1 (NAKAWUNGU, Nisha) stated that she was traveling Southbound on West St. and pulled over the sidewalk to park on the front lawn of 78 West St. She stated once on the lawn, she must have hit the gas instead of the brakes, and the vehicle then proceeded forward to the right, crossing over West St. into the fence of 77 West St. The fence and bushes sustained damage and photos were taken and submitted to the IT bureau to be attached to this report. No injuries were reported and the vehicle was not towed from the scene. Upon further investigation NAKAWUNGU, Nisha is being charged with Ch. 90 Sec. 10 Unlicensed Operation and Ch. 89 Sec.4A Marked Lanes Violation. See incident report #19014615.

On 05/04/19 at approximately 09:47 a citizen called in a vehicle that was parked on Elinor Rd near Woodcliff Rd with heavy damage. The anonymous caller stated the car had been parked there for at least 4 hours. Upon arrival Mass Reg #4FJ861 a 2004 Grey Honda Accord was spotted parked crooked in the road with its back bumper missing, bent drivers side rim and flat tire and large dent in the middle of the front bumper. Dispatch was able to get in touch with the vehicle owner Jaleh Jalili who stated her son Pouya Jalili was driving her car last night. While canvassing the neighborhood of Elinor Rd , Sgt. O'Connell was able to find a tire marks on a lawn and a downed "Sharp Bend" sign in front of #273 Dedham St. This crash site is approximately 1/4 mile away from where the parked car was found. I went to #273 Dedham St and witnessed fresh tire marks that went up on the curb onto the lawn of #273 Dedham St, over a vacant sign post hole and then a "Sharp Bend" sign that was half bent and then resting in the South brake down lane of Dedham St.. There was also a plastic black part of a car along with two (2) metal parts to the under side heat shield of an exhaust. The owner of #273 Dedham St was not home so I left a message on his door regarding this incident. Tody's was called and David showed up and towed the car from the scene. Officer Hagopian went to the residence of Pouya Jalili and spoke with him. Pouya told Officer Hagopian that he was involved in a spin out somewhere on Rt 9. in Wellesley and his bumper became detached. He then pulled into the CVS in Newton at #978 Boylston St where he pulled his bumper the rest of the way off. He then told Officer Hagopian that he continued down Rt 9 until he realized his car wouldn't make it any further and that's when he pulled off and parked on Elinor Rd. He then called a friend to pick him up and drive him home. On the way back to the station I stopped by #978 Boylston St with Officer Benes. He found a Grey rear bumper which is believed to belong to Pouya Jalili's car. I called David Donahue (Tow Driver) and asked that he look under the Honda to see if it had its heat shield. Donahue responded back that Mass Reg# 4FJ861 was missing its heat shield. I then drove to #93 Waltham St and spoke with Pouya Jalili with his mother Jaleh present. Pouya restated the same story he told Officer Hagopian and that he never struck anything in Newton nor was he drinking. Pouya said he might have been in a rush because he wanted to get home before his junior operator curfew. After finishing my interview with Pouya, I went to my cruiser and wrote Mass Criminal Citation #T1444231 for Ch 90/ Sec 24-Leaving the Scene of Property Damage (lawn and sign damage), Ch 90 / Sec 24-Operating to Endanger(putting the public at risk by driving up on the sidewalk) and Ch 89/ Sec 4a- Marked Lanes Violation (crossing Dedham St marked double yellow lines) and handed it to Pouya. I took pictures of the scene where the car was found, the crash site at #273 Dedham St and the bumper found at CVS and placed the disk in an envelope. The envelope was t.o.t. our I.T. Bureau for attachment to this report. Jaleh said her son was returning to Alabama tomorrow to finish high school and then he would be attending The University of Alabama in the Fall. I advised Jaleh about the Criminal Application process. As of today 05/04/19, Pouya has an active Massachusetts License and no B.O.P..Wellesley P.D. was notified of this incident in case they came across new damage on Rt 9.

Donna stated she was standing in the marked parking space waiting for traffic to stop to safely cross the street. Donna states the cars stopped to let her cross and she proceeded into the roadway. She states MV1 was attempting to back into the parking space that she was standing in and struck her right side and knocked her to the ground. Donna states the operator of MV1 stopped the vehicle when he realized he had struck her and got out to contact 911. Donna appeared to have minor injuries and complained of head pain. Medics transported Donna to NWH to be further evaluated. The operator of MV1 identified as Christopher Moos (S24090966) stated he was attempting to parallel park into an empty parking space and never saw the pedestrian standing in the space. Christopher stated as he was backing up into the space he was notified by a bystander that he just struck a pedestrian.

On 05/10/19 I met with Luiz A. Lopes who stated his vehicle ( Mass Commercial Reg# T83695 White Toyota Tacoma P/ U) was struck while parked in the lot around 07:00. Lopes said he didn't call the Police right away because he wasn't sure his car was struck there. The truck sustained a cracked front bumper and the fog light was popped out. We went inside of National Lumber and spoke with a manager who said he would contact G.M. Greg Assarian and have him look at the security footage. On 05/14/19 at approximately 14:00 the Police Station received a call from Lopes who just got off the phone with Assarian who found some security footage of the incident. I then traveled over to National Lumber and met with Assarian. He showed me the video and it appears that a newer grey four door Chevrolet truck backed into Lopes truck around 06:58 of 05/07/19. The Massachusetts plate is unreadable but an older White heavy set male gets out of the truck and walks into the store. After parking the truck the male can be seen checking his own truck bumper for damage. The male is wearing a baseball hat and sun glasses and cannot be identified on the video. The male does however walk with a noticeable limp. Assarian will show his picture to his employees and contact me if the employees are able to identify the male driver. I called Lopes back and apprised him of my findings. ******************UPDATE**************************************** As of today 05/20/19 I have yet to hear back from anyone at National Lumber so I will end this investigation and label it a hit and run crash.

Upon arrival, I observed a utility pole broken in half, wires hanging in the street, and also a transformer on the ground. Fire and medics responded. Other police units were able to block the street from traffic. I spoke to witness, HARRIS, who stated that she was traveling Southbound on Adam Street when she saw MV1 in the wrong lane traveling toward her at a high rate of speed. HARRIS stated that MV1 then turned into the utility pole located outside of 109. MV1 took out the pole, side swiped MV2 and then hit MV3 head on. Operator of MV1 stated that he was traveling Northbound on Adam Street when he sneezed. At this point, he said his eyes were off the road and the next thing he could remember was being in the parking lot of 109 Adam Street after the accident. There was significant damage to the front of MV1 with airbag deployment. Operator of MV1 was checked out by the medics for a head injury and signed a refusal. Operator of MV1 was asked if he had consumed any alcohol or taken any medication today and he declined. Officer Spinney (N491) asked if he was willing to do a Field Sobriety Test, and he stated yes.

MV1, a City of Newton contracted school bus, was parked on the side of the road. MV2 was driving east past the school bus and misjudged how close his trailer(Ma Reg D43490) was and struck MV1. There were no students on the bus. I took pictures and TOT IT. Operator MV2 was unlicensed and cited with Ma Citation T1269943 for 90/10. 2 licensed operators showed up and too possession of MV2.

MV1, a 1999 Ford Explorer, MA Reg: 7ZT136, collided with a tree on city property just outside of 134 Mt Vernon St. Operator, Jarrod Stomberg, immediately told me that he looked down at his phone to make a phone call and in that moment, ran off the road and hit the tree. There was airbag deployment. Jarrod signed a refusal with the medics and was driven home by a family member. He was issued in hand MA Citation T1441780 for 90/13B - Texting While Driving.

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.

MV1 had just gotten out of her MV in the driveway of 111 Hammondswood Rd. While between the door and the MV the MV started rolling backwards down the sloped driveway. The operator grabbed a hold of the top of the door and was dragged backwards across the street into the yard of 104 Hammondswood Rd where it came to a stop. The operator initaially claimed minor injuries but signed a refusal. This accident was caused by operator error as it appears that the car was not completely in park. There was minor damage(tire track mark) to the lawn. I attempted to contact the homeowner with negative results. I took pictures of the damage and TOT IT.

Tipruthai Thangthong stated that on 05/21/2019 at approximately 16:36 hours she was pulling into the driveway of her sisters home at 53 Rangeley Rd while operating her vehicle MA reg 2LVL61 a 2018 Honda Accord.

The driveway runs east to west and Thangthong's vehicle was heading west into the driveway as the sun was in the Western sky creating a glare. Thangthong stated that she did no see anything in the driveway prior to her pulling into it. Thangthong stated that she felt the front of her vehicle strike what she described as " something " and stopped her vehicle. Thangthong stated that she put her vehicle in reverse and then into park and exited her vehicle to see what she had struck. Thangthong stated that she saw her two nieces, Kalla Mongkhonlertsirkul age three and Kelley Mongkhonlertsirkul age seven laying in the driveway in front of her vehicle.

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.

MV1 was parked in front of #96 McCarthy Rd. MV2 is a City of Newton Forestry truck that was occupied and parked behind MV1 waiting to move up to a work site. MV2 began moving forward towards the site and struck MV1 from behind. Operator states that he was distracted by repositioning his seat and forgot that MV1 was parked in front him. There was a scratch to MV2 and damage to the rear of MV1. Pictures were taken by me and TOT IT.

On Wednesday, September 4th, 2019 while assigned to Traffic unit N526, I responded to 84 Paul Street, Newton for a report of a motor vehicle crash involving a City of Newton DPW vehicle. The weather at the time of the accident was clear and sunny. The road surface was dry. Paul Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. I met with the operator of MV1, Newton Associate Engineer John Daghlian. Daghlian stated he was operating Newton DPW Nissan Leaf (MA M99257) attempting to parallel park on Paul Street in an open space. Daghlian stated as he pulled forward into the space his front end made contact with the bumper of MV2 which was parked info of MV1 unoccupied. Both vehicles sustained very minor damage. No injuries were reported by the occupants of MV1. I spoke with the owner of MV2, Naomi Singer (2019 BMW 330XI, MA: 8SP372). She stated she was inside her dentist appointment when the accident occurred and was notified by Daghlian. Pictures of both vehicles were taken and submitted to the IT Bureau.

On 9/08/19 Kevin Coston came into NPD Headquarters to report a MV/Ped with Injury that had occurred on 8/23/19 at about 06:15 in the parking lot of Whole Foods (916 Walnut Street). The RP stated that he had left work (Whole Foods) at the back receiving door and was walking to his car, he bent over to take his knee pads off, while he was doing this he was struck by a delivery van that backed into him. The driver took out his headphones and said sorry before driving away. RP stated that he told the driver that he had been hit but the driver just drove away. RP went to hospital (Faulkner) on his own for lower back pain and has not been to work since. RP was able to take picture of the side of the delivery van. The van belonged to Shortstop Distribution Inc (508-655-5948). RP left a message that morning. He was texted by Gedeon (786-352-6695) who stated there was a language barrier and he didn't understand what had happened. RP advised Gedeon to talk to his lawyer or the police. Exact location of accident unknown. Diagram is a estimate. Report printed out and placed in traffic box for follow up. Traffic Bureau Update (Officer Gaudet): On Monday, September 9, 2019 I attempted to make contact with the operator if MV1, Gedeon Duarte, with a negative result. A Hit and Run motor vehicle inquiry was mailed to Duarte. I spoke with the injured party, Kevin Coston, via telephone on September 9, 2019. Coston stated he is an employee at the Whole Foods located at 916 Walnut Street, Newton. Coston stated on August 23, 2019 a black van backed into him as he was kneeling on the ground taking off his knee pads in the loading area of the store. Coston stated he approached the driver who remained in the vehicle to speak with him after he was hit. Coston described the driver as a heavy set Spanish male. Coston stated the operator of the vehicle rolled down his window, took his headphones out of his ear, said sorry, and left the area. Coston stated he contacted the Newton Police to report the accident but was told he needed to come in person to file the report. Coston stated he was unable to come to the station to file the report until September 8, 2019. On Friday, September 13, 2019, I spoke with Gedeon Duarte at the Newton Police Department. Duarte stated he spoke Portuguese and did not speak English. With the assistance of David Sargent from the Language Line (1-800-225-5254) translating, I was to speak with Mr. Duarte in the Traffic Bureau. Duarte stated he was making a delivery at Whole Foods and was waiting for another truck to leave so he could leave the area. Duarte stated a male party (Coston) came up to his driver door and was yelling him. Duarte stated that due to language barrier he was unable to understand what the person was saying to him, but stated the male party was yelling, "Fuck you! Fuck you!" Duarte stated he did not know what was going on and stated he left the area to allow the male party to calm down. Duarte stated he returned a minute later the male party did not want to speak with him. Duarte stated he returned a second time later in the morning and Coston was not there. Duarte stated he received a call from his employer stating Kevin Coston had called for him and he was provided with Coston's phone number. Duarte stated he texted Coston to find out what happened that morning. Duarte showed me a text message exchange from August 23, 2019 at 9:03 A.M. between himself and a party listed as "Kevin Whole". In the text messages, Duarte stated he is the driver of the van and that his supervisor called him. The other party responded and stated "Talk to the police and my lawyer". Duarte stated that he did not understand what happened and that he returned to whole foods. Duarte ended the text exchange with "927535425 my number of policy..." Duarte stated he had no idea he made contact with Coston and stated at the time of the alleged accident he did not hear/see/feel anything otherwise he would have stopped. Duarte's information has been updated in this report to reflect him as the operator/vehicle involved. Duarte also submitted pictures of the rear of his vehicle, a 2008 black Ford E350 (MA: 8NY171), from the day of the accident. Photos were submitted to the IT Bureau. Officer Wade went to the Whole Foods located at 916 Walnut Street, Newton in an attempt to view surveillance footage of the accident. Officer Wade stated the surveillance camera did not capture the incident and the van not viewed at all.

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.

On 09/27/19 at 08:41 hours while assigned to Traffic Unit 523, I responded to a motor vehicle/bicyclist accident at 1330 Centre Street. The weather at the time was clear and sunny. The road surface was dry and Centre Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. Traffic conditions were at a heavy volume and Centre Street was congested at the time. There is no dedicated bicycle lane in this area due to the road being too narrow. I spoke to the bicyclist involved (Unit 2), Michael Hnatko (S10432772). Mr. Hnatko stated he was traveling northbound on Centre Street on the right side of the road on his 20 inch gray Trek bicycle. He further says that he was peddling very fast at the time and must have not been paying attention to MV1 turning right in to parking lot of 1330 Centre Street as he was approaching from behind. As MV1 was turning right, he then struck the passenger side rear quarter panel of the vehicle and fell forward off of his bicycle. He sustained minor injuries such as scrapes to his knuckles on both hands and a small cut to the bridge of his nose. He signed a patient refusal with Cataldo Ambulance. It appeared that the front alignment was now off on his Trek bicycle. I then spoke to the operator of MV1, Lonnie McGinnis (S66044083). He states that he was inching along in heavy traffic waiting to turn right in to the lot of 1330 Centre Street with his right turn directional signal on. As he was turning right, the bicyclist struck his vehicle on his passenger side rear quarter panel area. McGinnis thought it was clear to turn right at the time and never saw the bicyclist approaching from behind. No injuries reported by McGinnis and I observed minor dents and scratches to the passenger rear quarter panel area. Digital photos taken by Ofc. Gaudet.

Katerina Iliades stated that on 10/23/2019 at 11:56 hours she was standing in front of the rear driver's side door of her vehicle MA reg 7BM656 2019 Land Rover while it was parked facing north in front of 316 Walnut St. Walnut St is a public way in the city of Newton. Iliades stated that she was placing her daughter Melina Bichelen in her car seat and when she observed MA reg 8EP212 a white Subaru Outback driving north bound on Walnut St near the marked crosswalk at 312 Walnut St. Iliades stated that she observed the Subaru was being operated by an elderly white male. Iliades stated that the she observed the Subaru's front drivers side strike several orange plastic three foot poles that are affixed to the roadway around the crosswalk. Iliades stated that after the Subaru struck the poles at the crosswalk it veered towards her. Iliades stated that she leaned back into the back seat of her vehicle and pulled the door towards herself as the Subaru's passenger side mirror made conact with her vehicle. Iliades stated that the Subaru continued north bound on Walnut St without stopping or slowing. Iliades complained of lower leg pain and refused medical aid or transport to a hospital at the crash scene. I observed no damage or markings on Iliades vehicle. MA reg 8EP212 is registered to Harilaos Papadogiannis ( DOB 01/02/1941 ) of 134 Apt 4 North St , Newton. I went to 134 North St and found MA reg 8EP212 a 2014 Subaru parked in the lot of 134 North St. I observed that the Subaru's passenger side mirror was lose from it's mounting and was turned down and was facing the wrong way. I further observed that the out side casing of the Subaru's mirror had scuff marks consistent with it forcefully making contact with an other object. I spoke with Papadogiannis who stated that he was driving his Subaru north bound on Walnut St at 11:56 hours on 10/23/2019. Papadogiannis stated that he could only recall striking the plastic poles near the crosswalk and nothing else regarding the crash. I as spoke with Papadogiannis he was confused and I had to repeat myself and my questions to him several times. I instructed Papadogiannis what steps he needs to take regarding filing out an operator crash report and contacting his insurance provider , but I believe that he did not fully comprehend what I was conveying to him. Based upon my observations at the crash seen and my conversations with Iliades and Papadogiannis , I believe that Papadogiannis was at fault for the crash. Based upon my observations of Papadogiannis I filed an Immediate Threat Request form and faxed it to the MA RMV Driver Control Unit. Photos of both vehicles were taken and downloaded by the NPD's IT Bureau.
