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.

MV1 (MA Reg: 51JD62, 2007 green Toyota Pruis) operated by Marcia Gittes (DOB 11/29/1948) was traveling Southbound on Walnut St when it collided with a pedestrian in the crosswalk at Walnut St/Foster St. MV1 collided with a man, later identified as Jerome Shectman (DOB 10/7/1964).

He stated that the pedestrian, Jerome was crossing in the crosswalk traveling Westbound towards Foster St, successfully passed through the lane where vehicles were traveling Northbound on Walnut St and was then hit by the Toyota Prudish in the lane going Southbound. Jerome was already halfway through the crosswalk at this point. It was dark, but there was a streetlight directly over this crosswalk on Walnut St creating a semi-lit area for visibility. Mrs. Gittes stated that she didn't see him because he was wearing dark clothing and it was dark outside. She saw him when it was too late. There was no damage to her vehicle. Mrs. Gittes was given a monetary citation (T0646789) for 89/11 Crosswalk Violation. pictures were taken at the scene and the photo SD card was sent to IT. Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): I was asked to follow up with the injured pedestrian involved in this accident, Jerome Schectman (S77606276).

On 01/04/19 I responded outside of #54 Needham St for a two vehicle crash. Veh #1 was a delivery box van who was driving due North on Needham St. The operator of veh #1 stated he was attempting to take a left into #55 Needham St. when veh #2 came from behind him on his left and he struck veh #2 as he turned. The operator of veh # 1 was taken by Ambulance #1 to Newton-Wellesley Hospital for an evaluation after complaining of pain in his chest area. The passenger of veh #1 stated everything happened "so fast" he didn't see what transpired. Moderate damage to veh #1. The operator of veh #2 stated he was traveling due North on Needham St. and was behind veh #1 for a long stretch of the road. The operator of veh # 2 stated veh #1 put his right directional on three different times but didn't turn. He stated veh #1 had his right directional on and was in the right lane when he went to pass him. Veh #1 then turned into his rear passenger side as he passed. Moderate damage to veh # 2. The operator of veh #2 stated the operator of veh #1 was walking around and yelling about the accident for a period of time and then eventually grabbed his chest and fell to the ground complaining of pain. From the result of my investigation it appears as if veh # 1 attempted to turn from the wrong lane and veh # 2 was passing in the "suicide lane", also wrong lane. There will be no citations issued at this time as both operators were given verbal warnings.

The operator of Vehicle #1 stated that as she was travelling Northbound on Pearl St, she collided with Vehicle #2. She stated that she didn't see it, prior to the collision. It should be noted that Vehicle #2 was parked, and unoccupied. Vehicle#1 was towed due to extensive damage. There were no injuries due to this accident.

On 1/5/19 at 1210hrs I was dispatched to the Pelham St Municipal Lot (public way inviting access maintained by the City of Newton) behind CVS for a report of an MVA involving several vehicles. On arrival, I observed Mv#1 MA Reg 5TWS10 with heavy front end damage wedged in between two other vehicles parked in marked spaces. #1 operator, in the driver's seat, was being evaluated by Medics. #1 was identified as Mary Jane Hymanwegscheider (10/14/38). I first made contact with a witness identified as Sharon Corliss. Ms Corliss stated she was sitting in her parked vehicle and observed Mv#1 backing out of the end spot next to CVS. She explained once #1 had came to a stop from backing, #1 then pulled forward, drove over a curb island and continued driving straight into the two parked vehicles. Ms Corliss stated it appeared #1 was travelling about 5mph preceeding the crash. After the medics intial evaluation of Ms Hymanwegscheider, I was able to ask her what happened? She stated she backed out of her space, hit the curb going forward and then put her foot on the gas instead of the brake before the collision. She was deliberate when speaking and appeared confused. She reported to medics she had no medical history and was not using any medications including allergy medication as well. She reported she did not hit her head after the collision. She was then transported to NWH for further evaluation after medics discovered her blood/sugar readings were very low. I advised Ms Hymanwegscheider her vehicle had heavy damage and was being towed by Tody's and to expect paperwork at the conclusion of the crash investigation. It appeared #1 struck Mv#2 first on its driver's side rear before striking Mv#3 parked next to it on the passenger side rear. #1 wedged itself between #2 and #3, #3 was then pushed to the left into the passenger side of Mv#4. #2 and #3 sustained heavy rear end damage. #4 sustained light damage. #1 towed by Tody's with heavy front end damage. #2 arranged for her own tow through her insurance company. A note was left on #3, and #4 was able to be driven from the scene. Ms Hymanwegscheider is showing no MV infraction/no accident history. Based on the totality of all information received as a result of this investigation, I will be issuing a citation (#T0340410) to Ms Hymanwegscheider for Ch90/Sec24, Negligent Operation.

MV#1 was traveling west on Beacon St. MV#2 was backing out of the driveway of 997 Beacon St. MV#1 crashed into MV#2.

On Saturday January 5th 2019 at 18:01, I was dispatched to Crafts St at Waltham St for a report of a 2 car accident. Operator of MV1 stated he was driving southbound on Waltham Street and approached the intersection as the traffic control changed to red. He slowed down and came to a complete stop. Approximately 4-6 seconds later, he was rear ended by MV2. MV1 sustained minor damage to the rear passenger side. MV1 had three other occupants in the vehicle at the time of the accident. The two passengers in the back seat complained of back pain and were evaluated by Cataldo Paramedic Basic 3 and both signed patient refusals. The operator of MV2 stated as he approached the intersection he "was sleeping." When I asked him to elaborate further he was unable to provide me any answers. He was evaluated by PB3 and transported to NWH. He was issued citation # T1441363 for Operating Under the Influence of Alcohol (2nd Offense) and Negligent Operation of a Motor Vehicle. See Report #19000596 for further details. MV2 was towed by Todys Towing due to the operator being transported to the hospital and the passenger stating he was too intoxicated to drive. A towed motor vehicle form was filled out.

On Sunday January 6, 2019 at approximately 1747hrs, I responded to the intersection of Pleasant Street and Centre Street for a report of a city motor vehicle crash. Upon arrival I located all vehicles pulled off on Pleasant Street about 50 feet from the Centre Street intersection. The City vehicle involved was Newton Police Cruiser N 496 ("MV #2") and it was driven by Officer S. Siegal. Siegal reported that he was directly behind MV #1 and observed the vehicle make a left turn onto Pleasant Street which was against the one way sign. Officer Siegal reports upon seeing this illegal turn he immediately turned his emergency lights and was trying to make a motor vehicle stop. The vehicle immediately stopped and while trying to back up and turn around, the vehicle backed into his cruiser. Officer Siegal reported that the vehicle was backing at just a few miles per hour. MV #1 was MA Reg. 3ZN523 a 2004 Nissan Sentra. This vehicle was operated by Huihui Tang. Tang reported that she was trying to go to CVS at that intersection when she turned onto Pleasant Street. Tang reported when the emergency lights were activated she tried to turn around and made minor contact with the police cruiser. During our conversation there was a bit of a language barrier and Tang appeared confused on why we needed to do a report. There was no injuries or any damage to any vehicle. Centre Street and Pleasant Street are Public ways in the City of Newton. Officer Siegal issued Tang MA Uniform Citation T0646880 for violating 19/85 for operating the wrong way. This citation was mailed to Tang. The initial citation issued on scene was later voided due to an address error. Officer Siegal also took pictures of both vehicles. Tang was advised on the process of what to do following a crash and reported she understood.

Motor vehicle 1 (MV1) was traveling eastbound on Beacon Street, when unknown motor vehicle 2 (MV2 ) pulled out from a parking space in front of 706 Beacon Street, without signaling, and crashed into the front passengers side of MV1. MV1 pulled over to the side of the road to exchange information as MV2 fled the scene eastbound on Beacon Street. The operator of MV1 stated that MV2 appeared to be an older model sedan, possible maroon or red in color, and was operated by a white female in her 60's. MV1 sustained significant front end and passengers side damage. MV2 likely sustained significant front drivers side damage. I was unable to check the surrounding businesses for possible security footage of the crash as all of the surrounding stores were closed when I arrived on scene.

On Wednesday, January 9, 2019, while assigned to Traffic unit N525, I responded to 457 Walnut Street, Newton for a report of a past motor vehicle/pedestrian accident involving a student at Newton North High School. I met with the pedestrian involved in the accident, Ellie McBride, in the Riley House admin office. McBride is a Freshman at Newton North High School. McBride's mother, Linda Hanusaik, was also present while I spoke with her. McBride stated at approximately 0740 hours, she was attempting to cross Lowell Avenue in a marked crosswalk at Highland Street (E). McBride stated she observed a newer model gray Acura SUV traveling towards her Southbound on Lowell Avenue while she was standing in the crosswalk. McBride stated she thought the vehicle was going to slow down for her. McBride stated as the vehicle got closer it appeared to be slowing down but was unable to avoid making contact with her. The front end of MV1 made contact with McBride's left side. The impact caused McBride to fall down onto the roadway. McBride stated the vehicle pulled over and the operator exited the vehicle to check on her. McBride stated the operator was a white female with long brown hair, possibly high school aged. McBride stated after she told the operator that she wasn't hurt, the operator returned to her vehicle and left the area, possibly towards Commonwealth Avenue. McBride could not provide any additional information about the operator of the vehicle involved. McBride stated she then walked to Newton North High School. McBride stated she went to her morning class but left and texted her mother to tell her she was involved in an accident. McBride stated she was shaken up by the accident, but reported no injuries. Newton Medics evaluated McBride and obtained a patient refusal. McBride was advised that due to the reported age of operator, they may be a student at the high school. McBride was advised that if she sees the operator to obtain her information/contact NPD. I checked the area of Lowell Avenue and Highland Street for the vehicle involved/witnesses with a negative result. A portion of Newton North's athletic fields are next to this intersection.

On 01/09/2019, at 1806 hrs, I responded to Washington St. on the Mass Pike overpass for a two car MVA.

The area of Washington St where the accident occurred is five lanes across in the same direction. The operator of MV1 stated he was attempting to change lanes to his right when he collided with MV2. The operator of MV2 stated he was attempting to change lanes to his left when he collided with MV1.

MV1 was traveling southbound on Walnut St when the operator, Saptarshi Ganguly, stated that he began to feel fatigued, believed he blacked out and then woke up after impact with MV2. Mr. Ganguly stated that he takes Atenolol for vasovagal syncope. I know this to be a condition that makes individuals feel like they are going to faint. He stated he was diagnosed with the disorder about 10 years ago. MV1 crossed over the double yellow lines on Walnut St and collided head-on with MV2 who was traveling northbound on Walnut St. Two witnesses (Kyle Fieleke and Edward Aybar) at the scene corroborated the story and said that MV1, in a 2015 BMW X535I, MA Reg: 668BG5 veered into the opposite lane and hit MV2 head-on, a 2018 Tesla Model3, MA Reg: EV585N. MV1 operator, Saptarshi Ganguly, was issued MA Uniform Citation T1440468 for 89/4a for Marked Lane Violation. A Request for Medical Evaluation form was filled out for Saptarshi Ganguly and faxed to the MA RMV at 857-368-0018 as I am unable to determine his driving ability. Both operators were transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital to be evaluated. Both vehicles had extensive front end damage and were towed by Tody's towing.

The operator of MV#1 stated she was travelling northbound on Walnut St attempting to make a left turn onto Hull St when her front passenger mirror was struck by MV#2 who was travelling northbound on Walnut St. The operator of MV#1 stated the operator of MV#2 must have known their vehicles made contact because he stopped momentarily, looked at her and drove away at a high rate of speed. The operator of MV#2 was described as a white male in his 40's. The registration for MV#2 was 7KX977. There were no reported injuries to the operator of MV#1 or its passenger. There were no visible damages to MV#1. A query of MV#2 (MA REG 7KX977) showed that it is registered to a female party out of a Newton MA address. I was able to speak to the registered owner of MV#2 and she stated that her husband was driving her vehicle this morning and gave me his cell phone. I spoke to the husband (Operator of MV#2) and he verified that he was travelling northbound on Walnut St earlier this morning but was unaware that he had made contact with any other vehicles on the road. I examined the driver's side mirror of MV#2 and did not observe any visible damages. The operator of MV#2 was forthcoming with his statements. There were no reported injuries to the operator of MV#2. Based on the statements made to me I advised all parties involved that this accident will be documented.

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.

On the above date/time I responded to Lexington Street / Freeman Street for a two motor vehicle crash with air bag deployment. Upon arrival on scene I checked all parties for injuries. Operator of vehicle one Ms. Farnese complained of head / neck injuries and Fire and Medics responded on scene. All parties in vehicle two did not have any injuries. I spoke with the operator of vehicle one Ms. Farnese in the ambulance she stated she was slowing traveling south on Lexington Street at the intersection of Freeman Street due to the traffic signal for Lexington Street was yellow. She stated as she was slowing she felt a heavy impact from in the rear by vehicle two. I spoke to the operator of two Ms. Heimbrock, she stated she is a pastor for the Salvation Army in New York and she was transporting two children Shamah Lapaix d.o.b. 4-18-14 and Grace Lapaix d.o.b. 1-10-11 to a Christian school in Wayland. She stated that she is staying with the children at 65 Falmouth Road Newton MA with the childrens grandmother due to the fact the parents are in New York doing a continuing education program until Friday January 18, 2019. She stated she is not familiar with the area, she was traveling south on Lexington Street approaching Freeman Street when she glanced at the map on her cell phone. She stated she did not observe the color of the traffic signal and did not observe the rear brake lights in vehicle one. All parties were evaluated in vehilce two by medics with no injury. I spoke with the childrens mother Sarah Lapaix 1-203-685-2809 who confirmed Ms. Heimbrock's statement about the care of the children. I did observe an expired inspection sticker as of 12/18 on vehicle one. Therefore due to operator of vehicle two's statement I checked the rear brake lights. When the brake pedal was pressed the left brake light and top(3rd) brake light was operational but the right rear brake light was not operational. Tody's towing arrived on scene and towed both vehicles top their lot. Ms. Heimbrock made arrangements for transport of herself and the children. Ms. Farnese was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for non life threatening injuries. I advised all parties of the process and gave them each others information. I checked the traffic signals in the intersection and they were fully functional. Therefore with all the above mentioned I am issuing citations to both parties Operator of vehicle one citation # T1440538 for Chapter 90 Section 20 EXPIRED INSPECTION STICKER $ 55.00 Operator of vehicle two citation # T1440539 for City Ordinance 19-75 FAILURE TO USE CARE IN STOPPING $ 20.00 Both citations were filled out after investigation and will be mailed to their license address.

On Wednesday, January 16th 2019, at approximately 3:30pm, I, Officer Brooks, responded to a single car MVA in the area of 611 Watertown street. Upon my arrival Cataldo medics were treating the operator of MV1(MA REG 159EF6) for a diabetic issue. I spoke with a witness to the accident who did not wish to leave their information. The witness stated they were traveling westbound on Watertown street behind MV1, when it suddenly left the roadway to the right, striking the curb, before returning to the roadway and stopping. The witness stated that MV1 nearly missed a fire hydrant and a utility pole on the sidewalk. MV1 had a flat front passenger side tire, and minor scrapes on the body. I spoke with the medics who were still treating the operator for her diabetic issue. I observed the operator was in and out of consciousness, and unable to speak about the accident. It took several minutes for the operator to regain her consciousness, however she was still not able to answer simple questions coherently and was transported to Newton Wellesley hospital for further evaluation. MV1 was towed from the scene by Tody's, and an inventory form was filed and submitted. The area the crash occured was a high pedestrian traffic area, and both an elementary and middle school are within walking distance of the accident. An immediate threat form was filled out and filed for the operator of MV1.

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.

The operator of MV#1 stated that she was waiting to exit NWH at the east exit/entrance. When her light turned green she proceeded to enter Washington St and her MV was struck by MV#2, who was traveling south on Washington St. The operator of MV#2 stated that she was traveling south on Washington St approaching NWH and had a green light to proceed thru the intersection at the east exit/entrance. An independent witness stated that she was in a MV directly behind MV#1 at the east exit when she observed their traffic light turn green and both her and MV#1 proceeded into the intersection. The witness then observed MV#2 traveling south on Washington St enter the intersection crashing into MV#1 while their light was still green. Operator #2 cited for a red light violation.

Officer A. Kane (MV#2) was parked S/B on Cherry st. @ Pleasant St. processing a past MVA accident. While MV#2 was parked, the vehicle was sideswiped by MV#1 which was travelling S/B on Cherry St. Road conditions were slippery and it was snowing at the time of the crash. MV#2 suffered damage to Drivers side door and drivers front quarter panel. MV#1 suffered damage to front passenger side quarter panel. No injuries reported.

On 1/19/19 I responded to 25 Normandy Rd for a report of a past hit and run.

(See witness narratives.) MV#1 suffered moderate damage to the rear and was driven from the scene. Waltham PD responded to the address listed for MV#2 and were not able to locate the vehicle. At approximately 2000 hrs, I was contacted at the police station by the owner of MV#2's wife. After further investigation (see incident report #19002425) it was determined that the operator of MV#2 at the time of the accident was the vehicle owner's brother. I spoke with Operator of MV#2 on the phone and he stated that the road was icy and slippery due to snow and he crashed into the back of MV#1. He stated he was nervous and thought he had only hit the sidewalk curb. Operator of MV#2 was issued citation T1440626 by mail for 90/24C Leaving the Scene of Property Damage, 90/10A Unlicensed Operation and 90/24 Use of MV Without Authority. He stated the vehicle suffered minor damage to the front.

On Tuesday January 22nd 2019 at approximately 1615 hours I responded to a two car motor vehicle accident at the intersection of Beacon Street and Crescent Ave, both are public ways in the City of Newton. At the time of the accident the current weather conditions were clear and dry with the road conditions extremely icy and snow covered. Upon arrival the medics were evaluating the operator of MV1 for slight back pain. The operator of MV1 signed a patient refusal and stated she was headed westbound on Beacon Street and stopped at the intersection of Crescent Ave, attempting to turn left. The operator of MV1 stated she came to a complete stop and had her left turn signal on waiting to turn onto Crescent Ave. She states MV2 then rear ended her and she pulled over the side of the road to wait for police assistance. MV1 was completely disabled with major rear end damage. MV1 was towed by Todys. The operator of MV2 stated he was traveling behind MV1 and attempted to stop behind MV1 but due to the icy road conditions, MV2 failed to stop and collided with MV1. The operator of MV2 refused medical attention and was able to drive MV2 from the scene.

At approximately 1615HRs. on Thursday, January 24, 2019, I was dispatched to the intersection of Elliot St. and Boylston St. for a report of an MVA. Upon arrival, I located the operator of MV1 (MA Pass: 1NB459) who had pulled into the BP gas station. He stated that he was traveling Northbound on Elliot St. when his traffic signal turned red and he brought his vehicle to a complete stop at the intersection. He stated that at this time, he was rear ended by MV2. He and the operator of MV2 then got out of their respective vehicles and spoke about the collision, after a few moments, the operator of MV2 got in her vehicle and left. Using the picture of MV2's license plate (MA Pass: 3EY477) which he provided me, I was able to contact the operator of MV2 at her residence. She stated that she was traveling Northbound on Elliot St. and observed MV1 come to a stop and she applied her brakes and came to a complete stop aswell, without making any contact to MV1. She further stated that the operator of MV1 became agitated and started to yell at her. She then left because she asserts that there was no collision and she was concerned by the operator of MV1's behavior. I observed no damage to MV1's rear bumper area, with the exception of an old dent, approx. the size of a quarter, which was highlighted with some type of permanent marker. I observed no damage to MV2's front bumper area and I noted large, pronounced license plate bolts affixing MV2's license plate to its bumper. The operator of MV1 stated that he was suffering from back pain due to the collision and elected to drive himself to Carney Hospital. Due to there being no damage to either vehicle and the large plate bolts on MV2, which would have likely caused notable damage to MV1's bumper, I will not be charging the operator of MV2 with leaving the scene of an accident at this time. Both parties have been advised to contact their insurance companies and I cleared without incident.

The operator of MV#1 stated that she was backing out of a parking spot in the Star Market Parking lot, #2040 Commonwealth Ave when she was involved in a MV crash. Operator #1 stated that she and the other operator both exited their MV's and even though there was obvious damage to MV#1, the operator of MV#2 refused to provide any information, got back into his MV and left the area. Operator #1 describes MV#2 as a large yellow backhoe that did not display a MV plate and she didn't observe a company name anywhere on the MV. The operator id described as W/M, approx. 40 YOA with brown hair. There is a backhoe type MV presently in the Star Market parking lot and operator #1 stated that is not the other MV involved. I also spoke with a Star Market manager who will view their exterior video footage of the parking area and notify me if it provides any information.

On January 25, 2019 at approximately 17:46 I responded to a motor vehicle hit and run. It was reported that a white pick-up truck crashed into a parked car and left the scene. I checked the area and was unable to find a vehicle matching the description. I responded to the crash location and spoke with the owner of MV1, who was not with his vehicle when it was struck. MV1 was parked legally on the shoulder of by 1743 Beacon St. The vehicle that struck MV1 left the travel lane and struck MV1 in the driver's side rear, causing damage. I spoke with the reporting party, Tim Leary, who heard the crash and saw a white Ford F-150 leaving the scene with damage on front passenger side. Leary did not see the license plate of the truck but thinks it was the 2006-2012 body style. The owner of MV1 was going to arrange for a private tow at a later time.

On 01/26/19 at 09:58 hours, I responded to a two car motor vehicle accident at Chestnut and Elliot Streets with no reported injuries. Both streets are public ways and maintained by the City of Newton. Operator of M/V # 1 (Quinn) states that she was stopped at the intersection of the above mentioned intersection going (EB) on Elliot Street. Once she received the green light signal she proceeded straight through and was struck by M/V # 2 on her passenger side. The vehicle sustained heavy damage to the passenger side front quarter panel area and it was towed by Tody's towing. Operator of M/V # 2 (Sanaguaray) states that he was operating straight ahead (NB) on Chestnut Street. He states that he thought the signal light was yellow when he proceeded through and does not recall what happened next. The vehicle sustained heavy front end damage and it was towed by Tody's towing. There were two witnesses to the accident. The first one, Karen Cherson, stated that she was traveling behind M/V # 2 when she observed him speeding and run through the red light striking M/V # 1. She said that the light was red by at least two seconds when M/V # 2 went through it. The second witness, John Quackenbush, states he was operating behind M/V # 1 when he observed their travel lane receive the green light signal. M/V # 1 then attempted to proceed through the intersection when it was struck on the passenger side by M/V # 2. Based on the two witness statements, it appears that Sanaguaray (M/V # 2) proceeded straight through the above mentioned intersection against the red light signal and struck M/V # 1. Sanaguaray was also operating a motor vehicle without a license and was issued a MA Uniform Citation # T1441052 for Ch. 89/9 and Ch. 90/10/A. He further stated that he has resided in Massachusetts for five years and was assigned a number of #S19552221 through the MA RMV but it shows no license status.

The operator of M/V#1 stated that he came off Rte. 9, stopped at the stop sign, then turned right (south) on to Ellis St. where M/V#2 collided with it. The operator of M/V#2 stated that she was traveling south on Quinnobiquin Rd, and proceeded through the intersection, when M/V#1 turned right, in front of her, and they collided. I spoke to a male party, who was seated in a car, in a parking area on Ellis St. who stated that he heard the accident, but did not see it.

On 01/28/2019 Karen Griffin came into NPD Headquarters to report the following. Griffin states that on 01/17/2019 her vehicle (V1) was parked in a parking space in the lower parking lot of Wegman's 200 Boylston Street.

On 01/31/19 at 10:39 hours, I responded to the parking lot of the Jewish Community Center located at 333 Nahanton Street for a motor vehicle hit and run accident. The parking lot is accessible to the public and designed for vehicles to travel to and from the JCC. Owner of M/V 1 states she was parked on the side of the handicapped parking stall thinking it was ok to park there. She then ran in to the JCC for approximately one minute and when she returned she observed her driver's side front door was struck. I observed significant damage to the door frame and the door would not close. The owner called for a private tow to remove the vehicle. The staff at the JCC stated that a Martha Bixby gave her number and stated that she observed a black colored car with MA reg. # 934HH4 strike M/V 1. I attempted to call the number and left a message. The listing for that plate comes back to a 2010 Lexus ES350 color gray. I was then showed the video surveillance from the JCC's cameras and it shows an older white female exiting the lobby wearing a winter hat and carrying a bag with purple flower designs on it. She then walks through the lot and enters a gray Lexus ES350. The Lexus then starts backing out of the spot. The Lexus then continues backwards in to the other side of the parking stalls and strikes M/V 1 on the driver's side front door. The Lexus then pulls forward and leaves the scene without stopping or providing her information. As the Lexus is leaving, you can see there is a dent to the driver's side rear bumper. The video is not clear enough to see the plate on the Lexus or clearly see the operator's face. After, I located a number for the owner of the Lexus M/V 2 (Tania Lefman). I spoke to Lefman on the phone and she stated that she was backing out of the JCC parking lot at that time and felt a tiny bump to her rear end. She says that she could not stop in time due to the icy parking lot and then left the area thinking that nothing was wrong, it was only minor. I advised her there was significant damage to the other car. She was issued and mailed MA Uniform Citation T1441054 for Ch. 90/24/C Leaving the scene of property damage.

Motor vehicle 1 (MV1) was parked facing southeast in front of 97 Union Street, when unknown motor vehicle 2 (MV2), sideswiped MV1 and then left the area. As a result of the crash, the passengers side, side view mirror was ripped of MV1. MV2 likely sustained minor drivers side damage. The reporting party, Gianfranco Palestro, heard the collision and believes that MV2 was a dark colored SUV, but was unable to get a license plate number. I was unable to check if any of the local businesses had security cameras that may have captured the crash as they were all closed for the night.

Traffic Bureau Update (Officer Gaudet): On Monday, February 4, 2019 I made contact with the President of Metrowest Packaging, Brian Hersh. Hersh stated his company does fulfillment deliveries for Amazon. Hersh was advised that a vehicle registered to his company was allegedly involved in a hit and run accident. Hersh was provided information on the vehicle involved. Hersh stated an employee named Alexis was operating MA CON:T65665 on the date of the accident and provided a phone number for this party. On Tuesday, February 5, 2019 I spoke with Alexis Laporte-Soto (S84358654). Laporte-Soto stated he was operating a 2017 Mercedes Sprint van (MA CON:T65665) in Newton for Metrowest Packaging on the date of the accident. I explained to Laporte-Soto the vehicle he was operating was alleged to have been involved in a hit and run accident on Highland Street in Newton. Highland Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. Laporte-Soto stated the vehicle he was operating hit the driver door mirror of a parked card on Highland Street. Laporte-Soto reported the accident as mirror (MV2 passenger side) to mirror (MV1 driver side). Laporte-Soto stated after his passenger side door mirror made contact with MV1's driver side door mirror, he stopped his vehicle 15 feet down the road. Laporte-Soto stated he walked up to the car he hit and saw the mirror was bent back but there was no damage. Laporte-Soto stated he waited near the car for 10 minutes and the owner never showed up. Laporte-Soto also stated a "random guy" took a picture of his license plate. Laporte-Soto stated he said "hi" to this party but the party ignored him and left the area. I asked Laporte-Soto why he did not call Newton Police to assist him in finding the owner of the vehicle he hit. Laporte-Soto stated he didn't know. I also advised Laporte-Soto that the name of the owner of the vehicle he hit was printed on the driver side door next. The owner's phone number and email address were also printed on the driver door. Laporte-Soto stated he didn't see that. I spoke with the owner of MV1, Jason Correria. Correria stated a co-worker observed the entire accident and observed MV2's passenger side mirror hit MV1's driver side mirror. Correria stated his co-worker then observed MV2 travel down Highland Street with out stopping and pull into the Santander parking lot located at 1314 Washington Street. Correria stated his co-worker saw the operator of MV2 exit his vehicle, check his passenger side door mirror for damage, and leave the area. Laporte-Soto will be mailled Massachusetts Uniform Citation T1443121 for Chapter 90, Section 24 (Leaving the scene of property damage).

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.

MV1 stated he was "driving to fast around the corner and hit the pole." MV1 actually hit a curb, took down a street light, went up on the island hitting another street light prior to hitting the curb. The second light he struck fell on MV2. MV1 sustained heavy front end damage and was removed from the scene by Tody's Towing. MV2 stated that MV1 "came flying across the intersection, crashed into 2 poles, one of which hit my car and he crashed over there." I then observed minor damage to MV2, however it did not require a tow. Both parties signed patient refusals with Cataldo Ambulance. Operator of MV1 was arrested and charged with the following: M.G.L. 90/24/J OUI Liquor M.G.L. 90//24/E Negligent Operation M.G.L. 89/4A Marked Lanes Photos of the scene were captured and turned over to the IT Bureau. Daigle Electric notified of the damaged lights.

Operator of MV1 (Mass. reg 4458XR) states he was traveling east bound on Commonwealth Ave when he approached the intersection. He states he had a flashing yellow light, slowed down and proceeded through the intersection when he collided with MV2. Operator of MV2 (CT reg. AA22048) states she was traveling north bound on Walnut Street when she approached the intersection. She states her light was solid green and slowed down as she proceeded through the intersection because MV1 was also proceeding through the intersection. MV2 and MV1 collided. When on scene I observed the traffic lights to not be working properly. The north bound traffic lights on Walnut Street were completely out and at times would flash red. The Commonwealth Ave lights were flashing yellow. It appears the cause of the accident is a faulty traffic light. Dagle Electric had to come out to the crash scene to re set the faulty lights.

ON 2-2-19 AT APPROX. 1159HRS. WHILE WORKING N492 I TOOK A REPORT FOR MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT HIT AND RUN. UPON ARRIVAL AT 675 WATERTOWN ST. I SPOKE TO THE OWNER OF VEHICLE #1. OWNER STATES SHE WAS INSIDE THE NEWTON BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB AND WAS INFORMED BY AN EMPLOYEE THAT SOMEONE HAD HIT HER VEHICLE. OWNER SAW THE DAMAGE AND GAVE ME HER INFORMATION. OWNER REPORTED NO INJURIES AND WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT HER INSURANCE COMPANY.. VEHICLE #1 HAD MINOR SCRAPES ON THE LEFT REAR BUMPER AND IT WAS SLIGHTLY DISLODGED.

MV1 was traveling SOUTH on Cherry St through the intersection of Webster St. MV2 was traveling WEST on Webster St through the same intersection. MV2 collided with MV1 inside of the Cherry St/Webster St intersection causing heavy front end damage to MV2 and damage to the rear drivers side wheel and fender. MV1 operator, Leah Wilson, stated that she had a green light and proceeded through the intersection when she was hit by MV2. MV2 operator, Caroline Steiner, and her 12yo daughter (passenger/front seat) Lorelai Steiner, stated that they were proceeding through the green light and observed MV1 going at a high rate of speed through the intersection. No injuries reported. Both vehicles towed by Tody's. MV1 operator, Leah Wilson was issued in hand MA Uniform Citation T1440472 for 89/9 - Red Light/Fail. On scene, I observed debris surrounding the four-way intersection and MV1 laid to rest past the intersection and facing the wrong direction in traffic. The damage to both vehicles was severe and MV1 had air bag deployment. The reporting party was an NPD auxiliary officer who had responded prior to my arrival because he heard the crash from the backyard of the police station which is approximately 350-400ft. Based on my training and experience, I believed Leah Wilson to be traveling through the intersection while failing to yield to the traffic control device.

MV2 stated that she was turning into the Star Market parking lot while someone was exiting the lot in the wrong direction. MV2 stated that due to the other vehicle going out the wrong way, she had to move over and collided with MV1. The operator of MV2 stated that her car came in contact with the drivers side front bumper of MV1. The operator of MV1 (MA Reg: 977GE4) was not on scene at the time of the accident.

MV2 sustained damage to the front of the vehicle. Neither party was injured.

The operator of MV1 stated she was traveling Westbound on Washington St. at Church St. in the left travel lane and was coming to a stop behind several other cars at the red light. She stated as the light turned green she was struck from behind by MV2. As she proceeded to pull over, MV2 continued to travel Westbound on Washington St. and didn't stop. MV1 sustained minor damage to the right rear and was able to drive away from the scene safely. MV2 came back registered to GOMES, Leonel of 72 High St. Waltham, and dispatch requested Waltham PD respond to check for the vehicle. Waltham PD located the vehicle in the driveway and the registered owner was sitting in the vehicle. An ELMUS, Elmer was on scene to translate for the operator as he only spoke Spanish. Dispatch relayed to me that there was no status found on GOMES' license, and upon speaking to GOMES and ELMUS they confirmed he did not have a license or passport. GOMES relayed to ELMUS that he was aware that he struck MV1 at the intersection of Washington St. at Church St. He stated that the light was green and that he was traveling Westbound on Washington St behind MV1. He attempted to brake and turned his wheel to the right to avoid the crash, but struck MV1 in the right rear.

Upon arrival I observed MV1(MA REG 7TT558) in the travel lane with both tires broken free from the axle. I spoke with the operator who could not recall how the accident happened, or what was struck. After an investigation the operator was placed under arrest for 90/24 OUI Alcohol. Officer Boyle was able to assist in the accident investigation. It appears the operator had been traveling westbound on River street and struck a utility pole on the drivers side front tire. The vehicle continued to the intersection of River street and Auburndale avenue and struck a curb here on the passenger side tire. Both tires were broken free from the axles. The vehicle was towed by Tody's and an inventory form was filed. Eversource was notified about the pole.

Operator of MV1 states he was traveling eastbound on Lagrange St approaching Bryon Rd when MV2 made an "unusual" left turn attempting to travel southbound on Bryon Rd. Operator of MV1 states when MV2 made the left turn, MV2 collided with MV1 causing damage to the left front corner panel and drivers side door. Operator of MV2 states he was traveling westbound on Lagrange St approaching Bryon Rd to take a left turn traveling southbound on Bryon Rd. Operator of MV2 states while making the left turn, MV1 looked like it attempted to come to a stop but slid due to the snow and slippery road conditions. Operator of MV2 states his tires spun out attempting to make the turn and struck MV1 with the front left corner panel causing significant damage. It should be noted the weather during this time was heavy snow with wet and slippery road conditions, which is a determining factor on how the accident happened.

MV1 was coming down the Rte 9 West off ramp to Chestnut St. Operator was traveling too fast for the snowy road conditions and failed to stop for the stop sign at the bottom of the ramp. A snow storm had started 2 hours prior to the accident and road conditions were slippery. MV1 struck MV2 broadside who was traveling north on Chestnut St with the right of way.

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.

Operator of MV1 (Mass reg. 8928AN) states he was traveling south bound on Waverly Ave when MV2 went through the stop sign and entered the intersection causing him to collide with MV2. Operator of MV2 (Mass reg. 7SH894) states she does not have much recollection from the accident. She states she had glare in her eyes when she was traveling east bound on Franklin Street and stopped at the intersection with Waverly Ave and proceeded through the intersection and collided with MV1. All parties were evaluated by Cataldo paramedics, operator of MV2 was transported to Saint Elizabeth's Hospital with minor injuries. Tody's towed both motor vehicles.

The owner of MV#1 stated her vehicle was parked in the rear parking lot (Located on Rice St) of 1066 Centre St and was informed by 2 witnesses that stated her vehicle was struck by MV#2. I spoke to the 2 witnesses and they stated they were on the second floor of 1066 Centre St in suite #212 and had a bird's eye view of the rear parking lot on Rice St. The witnesses stated that MV#1 was parked while MV#2 was parked at an angle at a very close proximity to MV#1. The witnesses stated the operator of MV#2 was cleaning the snow off her vehicle, got into her vehicle then backed out of her parking space striking MV#1. The witnesses took a digital photograph of MV#2's registration (MA REG 763YC9). They described the operator of MV#2 as an Asian female in her 40's, 5'1" in height, operating a black colored "Buick" S.U.V type vehicle. MV#1 sustained minor damages to its front passenger door and bumper. A query of MA REG 763YC9 showed that it was registered to an Asian female to a black colored "Buick Rendezvous". The owner of MV#1 stated the owner of MV#2 also has a business in the same building at 630 Commonwealth Ave (Move2Boston Group). I spoke to the registered owner of MV#2 via telephone and she stated she was parked in the rear parking lot on Rice St but denied making contact with any vehicles. I could not observe MV#2 as it was not at the scene. At 14:40 I returned to 1066 Centre St and was able to observe MV#2. MV#2 displayed minor scrapes to its front driver's side bumper which was consistent relative to where both vehicles were parked. Based on the witnesses statements I will document this accident and provide this report number to the vehicle owners.

On 3/1/19 while working N493, myself and N492 Officer Selig were sent to the area of 1354 Washington St for a motor vehicle accident with reported injuries. On arrival, I spoke to Matthew Digregorio DOB7/2/74 ( hereby referred to as operator #1) who was standing on the sidewalk next to MA reg 134TR9 (vehicle #1 ). Vehicle #1 had significant damage to the front and right quarter panels. It was straddled between the travel lanes and did not have the keys in the ignition. It was immediately apparent that operator #1 suffered an injury to his head, as there was a moderate amount of blood and small pieces of glass stuck in his forehead area. I observed operator #1 to be unsteady on his feet, have bloodshot eyes and slurred speech. I could detect a moderate odor of alchoholic beverage coming from operator #1 as I was approaching him, which was apparent from about an arms length away (it should be noted that medics were already en route to the scene at this time). Prior to the medics arrival, I asked operator #1 for a brief synopsis of what transpired. Operator #1 stated that he had just left Paddy's Pub and was driving westbound on Hunter St (which is approximately 1/8 mile from our location) when he collided head on with vehicle #2. Vehicle #2 was not immediately visible upon police arrival, however was pointed out as being located at the intersection of Hunter and Putnam St. I asked operator #1 where he was heading, as Hunter St is a back road not directly in the vicinity of Paddy's. Operator #1 could not answer the question and also remained silent when I asked him how much alcohol he had consumed this evening. At this time the medics arrived on scene. I asked operator #1 for the car keys to reliquish to the tow truck operator, which is standard operating practice. Operator #1 reached into his pocket and then provided me with the keys. Due to concern over operator #1's obvious head trauma, he was then transported to NWH to be evaluated while the investigation continued on scene. Two other parties approached myself and Officer Selig. One was the operator of vehicle #2, MA reg 1RD999. Operator #2 is identified as Luke Ferdinands DOB 5/11/80. The other party who approached is identified as Douglas Dasilva-Pimenta DOB 6/2/86 (Dasilva-Pimenta will now be referred to as operator #3). Operator #2 states that he was taking a right onto Hunter St from Putnam St, when he observed vehicle #1 on the wrong side of the road approaching him head on. Operator #2 states vehicle #1 then collided head on with him, took a right onto Putnam St, and continued onto the Washington St overpass near 1354 Washington St. Operator #3 states he was inside of #5 Hunter St when he heard a loud crash coming from outside. He looked out the window and saw vehicle #1 traveling at a high rate of speed on Hunter St towards Putnam St. Operator #3 observed damage to the right side of his parked vehicle (now referred to as vehicle #3) MA reg 7CAK80. He immediately got in his vehicle and proceeded to follow vehicle #1, which then crashed into vehicle #2 head on. Operator #1 did not stop until it was obvious that operator #3 was following close behind. This ultimately landed vehicle #1 at it's final location near 1354 Washington St. Vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 were not driveable and were towed to Tody's. It should be noted that there was a passenger in vehicle #2 at the time of the collision. Airbags were deployed and medics checked out both operator and passenger. Both declined transport. The passenger is identified as Elizabeth Ferdinands DOB 5/22/53.Ferdinands' version of events coincide with that of operator #2. Upon speaking with Officer Selig it was learned that operator #1 dropped his cell phone several times as he was holding it on scene. Both Officer Selig and operators #2 and #3 observed this. Operators #2 and #3 both expressed concern over the obvious odor of alcohol eminating from operator #1, and the fact that he was unsteady on his feet. I responded to NWH to follow up with operator #1 however he did not wish to speak further. He did express concern over the well being of all parties involved. Operator #1 was issued in hand the following citations: T1268426 - 90/24 OUI Alcohol, 90/24 Leaving the Scene (property damage, vehicle #2), and 90/24 Leaving the Scene (property damage, vehicle #3).

T1269216 - 90/24 Negligent Operation of a M/V (mailed after consultation with superiors) All streets mentioned are public ways in the City of Newton. 1354 Washington St will be the address used on this report and subsequent citations due to multiple locations being involved. Citations and paperwork have been placed in the prosecutor's mailbox. An immediate threat form has been filled out and faxed to Mass DOT. *Attention Police Prosecutor for blood work subpoena, if applicable*

On 3/4/19 I responded to the area of Hammond St and Chestnut Hill Rd for a report of a two car MVA. Upon arrival it was determined there were no injuries and the two drivers signed patient refusals with the ambulance. I first spoke with the operator of MV#1 who stated he was driving northbound on Hammond St near the Chestnut Hill T station where it bends and MV#2 was coming southbound and skidded on the snow and came into his lane. I then spoke with the operator of MV#2 who stated he was driving southbound on Hammond St when his vehicle lost control around the turn and drifted into the opposite lane and struck MV#1. I issued the operator of MV#2 MA Citation T1268628 for Chapter 89/4A; Marked Lanes Violation. At the time of this accident there were heavy snow conditions. Tody's Towing responded and towed both vehicles from the scene.

Operator of MV#1 stated he was travelling westbound on Commonwealth Ave with his dog in the front seat when he slid on ice and off the roadway. The roadway was wet from previous snow fall but was very well plowed and sanded. MV#1 hit a curb, drove through a snowbank, hit a tree with the left front of his vehicle and then hit a pole with the right front side of his vehicle. The car then came to a rest in the median. The operator appeared confused by the accident and did not realize the extent of the damage to his car.He asked what he had hit. He continuously asked if it was driveable even though the entire front end was totaled. He was able to provide me with his license and all pertinent information but spoke in a slow manner. There was no odor of alcohol. Operator declined medical attention. When asked if he was on any medication he stated he was on heart medication. We were able to contact the operator's son who was transported to the scene and stated the operator had previously suffered a stroke. David Donahue arrived on scene towed the vehicle to Tody's. A licensed driver picked up the operator. A search of the immediate area yielded negative results for ice in the roadway. A request for Immediate Threat License Suspension/Revocation was filed.
