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. Officer Donahue took pictures of the fire hydrant and crash scene, which have been submitted to the IT Bureau. The fire department was made aware of the broken hydrant.

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.

ON 1/18/2019 AT APPROX 0929HRS WHILE ASSIGNED TO 497 i RESPONDED TO THE AREA OF 1830 BEACON ST FOR A REPORT OF A TWO CAR COLLISION WITHOUT INJURY. UPON ARRIVAL I OBSERVED BOTH VEHICLES IN THE ROADWAY WITH UNDER RIDE , FLUIDS ALL OVER ROADWAY AND AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT IN THE REAR VEHICLE. BOTH OPERATORS WERE STANDING ON THE SIDEWALK. I SPOKE WITH THE OPERATOR OF MA DEALER REG 5550 MARISSA DEVLIN WHO STATED SHE HAD STOPPED FOR A PEDESTRIAN IN THE CROSSWALK WHEN SHE WAS STRUCK FROM BEHIND. I THAN SPOKE WITH THE OPERATOR OF MA PASSENGER REG 3NM859, THOMAS DORRANCE WHO STATED ' IT APPEARS I'M AT FAULT' DORRANCE STATED HE HAD NOT NOTICED DEVLIN SLOWING AND STOPPING AND RAN INTO THE BACK OF HER. DEVLIN WAS ALSO COMPLAINING OF PAIN FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AND AIRBAG, CATALDO RESPONDED.

NFD SPREAD SPEEDY DRY AND CLEARED THE ROADWAY.

On 2/12/2018 at approx 1445hrs while assigned to 497 I responded to the area of 659 Chestnut St for a report of a two car crash . Upon arrival Ma Reg 9VA441 being operated by Steven HUTCHINSON and Ma Reg 98NL90 being operated by Vi DANG were pulled to the side of the road, there was a heavy snowfall and the road had accumulated a thick layer of snow and multiple crashes were occurring. NFD was on scene , DANG was crying and hysterical despite the minor nature of the crash and zero damage to either vehicle. HUTCHINSON stated they were creeping along NB on Chestnut St when DANG stopped, HUTCHINSON attempted to stop and his 4wd engaged and he slid slightly into the back of DANGS car, no marks or damage to either car. DANG elected to go to NWH with Cataldo . DANGs veh towed so as not to obstruct roadway.

MV#1 Stated while traveling westbound down Commonwealth ave he struck a patch of ice. The ice caused his vehicle to rotate 360 degrees and proceeded to slide on the roadside shoulder striking a verizon poll ( 102/285). MV#1 traveled approximately 12ft from the road before striking the poll. MV#1 sustained heavy front end damage. MV#1 had all airbags deployed and had a small fire under the front end. I observed multiple other vehicles passing having difficulties and vehicles sliding due to significant ice conditions. Driver of MV#1 had injuries to his left arm, possible broken forearm/wrist. Passenger of MV#1 stated she had chest pains. Medics transported both parties to Newton Wellesley Hospital for further evaluation. Tody's Towed the vehicle due to heavy front end damage.

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.

On February 27, 2019 at approximately 06:33 hours I responded to the area of 1091 Centre St for a motor vehicle crash with minor injuries. Upon arrival, fire and medics were evaluating all parties involved. The operator of MV2 complained of neck and back pain but refused medical transport but will be seeking care if pain continues. All motor vehicles were traveling Northbound on Centre St. slowing in traffic. MV1 crashed into the rear MV2, which in turn made MV2 crash into rear of MV3. MV1 admitted fault, claiming that she hit the gas pedal instead of the brake. MV2 was towed by the scene by Tody's.

On Friday March 15th 2019 at approximately 0730 hours I responded to the intersection of Beacon Street and Herrick Road for a report of a hit and run involving a bicyclist. The weather at the time of the accident was cloudy and the road conditions were dry. Both streets are public ways in the City of Newton. Upon arrival I observed the victim identified as Glenn Butcher (MA OLN S36552335), inside the ambulance getting medical attention. Butcher was getting a bandage applied to his left leg and complained of leg, back and neck pain. Butcher appeared visibly shaken and in pain. Butcher stated he had the green traffic light and was travelling eastbound on Beacon Street crossing Centre Street and then continuing straight crossing Herrick Road. Butcher stated MV1 was travelling westbound on Beacon Street and took a left turn onto Herrick Road and collided into his bicycle. Butcher states upon impact he flipped over his bicycle and landed on the hood of MV1, before rolling off and landing on the ground. Butcher states he was wearing his helmet which was present. Butcher states his bicycle ended up partially under MV1. Butcher states the operator of MV1 pulled his vehicle to the side of the road and got out of his vehicle and spoke to several witnesses briefly. Butcher states the operator then left the scene without properly exchanging information and did not wait for the police to arrive. Butcher described the vehicle as a dark gray Honda, and described the operator as an older white male, 5'10 approximately 80 years old with white hair. Butcher was also able to provide an email address for another bicyclist who witnessed the accident. The witness left his information with Butcher prior to my arrival. Fire fighters on scene were able to get the registration number of the vehicle from the witness (MA REG 4CX148) and gave it to Officers on scene. Butcher was transported by Medic 1 to NWH with minor injuries. His bicycle had visible damage to the frame area and skid marks were present on both tires. 19 photographs of the scene and the bicycle were taken and sent to the IT dept. email. Officer Gabriel transported the bicycle to the station where it was logged into Property & Evidence for safekeeping. Dispatch was able to query the registration which came back to a gray, 2010 Honda Accord registered to a Matthew Sugarman (MA OLN S38601397), out of W. Roxbury. Dispatch contacted the Boston Police Dept. and had them send an Officer to the address to try to make contact with Sugarman. Sugarman was advised to contact the Newton Police Dept. and I was able to speak with him on the telephone. Sugarman states he was driving the vehicle today and was involved in an accident with a bicycle. Sugarman states he was travelling westbound on Beacon Street and was taking a left onto Centre Street not Herrick Road. While speaking with Sugarman he seemed confused as to his location during the accident and was adamant that he was turning left onto Centre Street and not Herrick Road. I advised Sugarman that I was on scene with the first responding Officers and the accident clearly occurred at the intersection of Beacon Street and Herrick Road based upon the final resting place of the bicycle. Sugarman went on to state that his vehicle was already turning when the bicycle struck his vehicle and he believed it was the bicyclists fault. I advised Sugarman it appears the bicyclist had the right of way since it was traveling straight and that because his vehicle was taking a left turn, he failed to yield for on coming traffic at an intersection. When asked why he did not stay at the scene of the accident Sugarman stated he got out of his vehicle and spoke to the bicyclist and he "seemed okay". Sugarman states he then left the scene while the victim was still sitting on the ground. I asked Sugarman if he had ever been involved in accident before and he replied "no." I advised Sugarman that I am currently looking at his drivers history and see nine accidents that he was involved in. Sugarman stated "he has never been in accident like this before." I then asked Sugarman what the law states when you are involved in an accident and he was not able to provide me with an answer. I advised him that the law states you must stop and exchange information before leaving the scene of an accident. Again he stated the bicyclist seemed okay and "he had somewhere to be so he left." Sugarman has an extensive drivers history including nine surchargeable accidents, reckless operation, two different charges of leaving the scene property damage and two immediate threat affidavits filed against him. I advised Sugarman that I will be mailing him a citation for Ch89 s8 Fail to yield to oncoming traffic, and Ch90 s24 Leaving the scene of personal injury. I also filed an immediate threat form with the registry. I emailed the witness using the information he provided to the Newton Fire Dept that was on scene and received a phone call back from the witness identified as Bruce Adams. See witness report for his statements. I contacted the Bank of America located at 808 Beacon Street in Newton, as they are the closest business to that intersection with video surveillance. I spoke with George Walsh (781-834-8275) who stated they do not have any working cameras on that side of the building to the bank. For this report the bicyclist is entered as a non-motorist for validation purposes. Witness Bruce Adams (MA OLN S96398108) stated that he was riding his bicycle travelling behind the victim about 100 feet away. Adams states he was watching the victim and had a clear view of him as he travelled behind him, through the green traffic light heading eastbound on Beacon Street. Adams stated he witnessed MV1 travelling westbound on Beacon Street take a sharp left turn onto Herrick Road which turns into Union Street. Adams stated that the vehicle turned left colliding into the bicycle and there was no possible way the bicyclist had time to stop to avoid the collision. Adams stated the victim flew over his handle bars and fell on top of MV1's hood and then landed on the ground. Adams stated the victim's bicycle was stuck under MV1's front bumper. Adams stated the operator of MV1 backed his vehicle up with the bicycle still attached to his vehicle bumper and pulled MV1 over to the side of the road. The operator then got out of his vehicle and walked up to the victim who was laying on the ground visibly in pain. Adams stated the operator asked the victim if he was okay to which the victim did not immediatley reply as he was visibly shaken up. Adams stated the operator then walked back to his vehicle and attempted to leave the scene and that is when Adams stood infront of MV1 to stop him from leaving the scene. Adams stated he then removed the bicycle from underneath the bumper of MV1 and placed it on the side of the road. Adams stated the operator got out of his vehicle again and walked up to the victim and asked him "what do you want to do?". Adams stated the victim did not respond and that is when the operator got back into his vehicle and drove away, leaving the scene before any emergency response arrived. Adams stated he was able to memorize MV1's registration and stayed with the victim until police, fire and medics arrived. He stated he gave the fire dept the registration and his contact information prior to leaving the scene.

On the above date/time I responded to the area Dedham St/Parker St for a report of two motor vehicle crash with minor injuries. Upon arrival with Fire/medics I spoke to the oper of v1 Ms. Hollowell who had a shoulder injury due to side impact. She stated she was traveling on Dedham Street (east) applied her left turn signal and was turning left onto Parker Street when v2 went through the stop sign and struck her vehicle. I spoke to the operator of v2 Ms. Kuznetsova who stated she was stopped at the stop sign on Parker St ( south) She stated she accelerated forward turning left (east) onto Dedham St when vehicle one struck into her vehicle. Oper of v1 signed a patient refusal and oper of v2 had no injury. Both parties were unsure of the area in the intersection of impact, all vehicles were moved by the operators prior to my arrival and I could not find any physical characteristics in/ on the roadway to find impact area. Therefore the diagram reflects the damage points on the vehicles but not the impact area on the roadway. All parties advised of the process.

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

Operator of vehicle one ( MA reg 3986BV 2012 MERZ ) , Vladimir Krapchev stated that on 03/21/2018 at 08:56 hours he was stopped at a red light on Center St at Commonwealth Ave. Krapchev stated that his vehicle was heading south on Center St and was the third vehicle in line to turn west bound on Commonwealth Ave. Center St and Commonwealth Ave are both public ways in the city of Newton.

The Fire Department car had scuff marks on it's passenger side rear door. Neither vehicle was towed and both operators stated that they were not injured in the crash. I took photos of both vehicles and forwarded the disk to the NPD It bureau for down loading.

I responded to the area 107 Dartmouth St. at approx. 0345 on 04/28/9019 along with N493 Officer Kelly Donahue and N508 Sgt. Devine for a report of an MVA. The MVA was reported to be single vehicle crash. The vehicle left the roadway and was on the front lawn of 107 Dartmouth St. I arrived on location (first on scene ). I observed tire tread marks across the front lawn of 107 Dartmouth St. I then observed a vehicle in the bushes toward the left front side of the house. The vehicle; NY Reg. JHE8252, Porsche color blue. The RMV info on the plate came back registered to Porsche;of ;South. Registration plate type: Dealer Assignment. 185 W Sunrise HWY; Freeport,NY (no further info). The vehicle was unoccupied and secured. I felt the hood of the car which was still warm from the engine. I checked the immediate area surrounding the crash scene for an operator but found no one. I radioed to other responding units to canvas the neighborhood and surrounding area for the operator on foot. I spoke to the homeowners at 107 Dartmouth St., identified as Anthony and June Limberis. Mrs. Limberis stated she heard a load noise and a car engine revving. She stated when she looked out the window she observed a W/M tall, thin, wearing tan khakis and a light colored plaid shirt walking across the front lawn. He proceeded up Dartmouth St. (northbound) toward Commonwealth Ave. Newton Fire Dept arrived on location to check the crash scene and vehicle for possible leaking fluids and any other hazards. As I was talking with the firefighters we were approached by two men. One of the men was intoxicated. He was unsteady on his feet, had glassy bloodshot eyes, and was slurring his speech. The man was a W/M tall/thin approx. 6'2" and was wearing tan khakis and a light colored plaid shirt. He was identified as Eric Adams DOB 09/18/1969. The second man with him was identified as John Adams DOB 02/07/1936; An elderly W/M approx. 5'6" also wearing tan khakis and a light colored plaid shirt. Eric Adams stated his father John was the operator of the vehicle. Eric Adams had a strong odor of Alcoholic beverage emanating from his person and breath. He continued to slur his speech and was unsteady on his feet as he spoke. He was swaying back and forth and side to side as he spoke to me. Officer K. Donahue and Sgt. Devine were on scene at this time and also made the same observations. Multiple times we had to grab hold of Eric Adams to keep him from losing balance and falling. We spoke with Eric and John Adams for several minutes as their accounts of what took place were not consistent. I asked Eric Adams where the keys to the vehicle were. Eric Adams immediately pulled the starter key to the vehicle from his front right pocket. Eric Adams became defensive and belligerent when questioned about who was operating the vehicle. John Adams appeared tired (as if he just woke up) and confused as to the situation. Sgt Devine and I both spoke with Eric Adams and John Adams. Although both men claim John Adams was the operator of the vehicle, a clear determination was uncertain. A query of both mens driver's license status on NY Licenses came back active. Eric Adams has two prior DUI's on his RMV record. Officer Donahue and Sgt. Devine escorted the two men to 93 Dartmouth St. Eric Adams stated they were staying at that residence which is his sister's house. I stayed at the crash scene to document information and assist with clearing the MV from the property with Tody's Towing Service. As they were walking away I observed Officer Donahue and Sgt. Devine continue to have to assist Eric Adams with staying on his feet. Approximately ten minutes later as I was speaking with the aforementioned homeowners Mr.&Mrs. Limberis. Officer Donahue and Sgt. Devine returned to the crash scene. As they were updating me we observed Eric Adams returning to the crash scene. He was stumbling and swaying as he walked and repeatedly almost fell. Officer Donahue and Sgt. Devine immediately intercepted and assisted him before he fell. As they were assisting him again I continued speaking with the homeowners. Suddenly I heard Officer Donahue and Sgt. Devine struggling with Eric Adams who was now on the ground and resisting being handcuffed. I ran to assist them. Eric Adams continued to resist and be uncooperative until he was appropriately restrained in handcuffs. Eric Adams was placed under arrest by officer Donahue for Disorderly Conduct and Resisting Arrest. Reference Officer Donahues Newton Police Incident Report #19016484. The vehicle NY Reg. JHE8252 was removed from the property of 107 Dartmouth St. and towed from the crash scene by Tody's Towing Service.

On Sunday, May 5th, 2019 at approximately 1315 hours while working the City of Newton detail for the Walk for Hunger I was standing at my assigned post at the intersection of Centre Street and Willow Street. At the time, the road surface was dry and the weather was cloudy. Traffic was particulary heavy as there were several streets in the area still blocked off for the Walk for Hunger and there were participants still walking the route in the area. My attention was drawn to the intersection of Centre Street and Bowen Street as there was a motor vehicle travelling southbound on Centre Street with their left turn signal on attempting to take a left turn on to Gibbs Street. Gibbs Street was temporarily blocked to non-residential motorists as there were several pedestrians in the road crossing over Gibbs Street. As the motor vehicle attempted to turn, there were several pedestrians in the crosswalk crossing over Gibbs Street. The vehicle had stopped halfway into the northbound lane on Centre Street blocking on coming traffic. The operator appeared to realize Gibbs Street was blocked and attemped to turn the vehicle back into the southbound lane to continue southbound on Centre Street. As the vehicle turned back into the southbound traffic lane, the vehicles rear end collided with Officer Richard Clements, who was operating NPD motorcycle unit 533. Officer Clements was traveling southbound on Centre Street and was passing the vehicles in the southbound traffic lane which were currently all at a standstill. Officer Clements had his emergency lights activated as he was on his way to remove traffic cones from the street to open up all the traffic lanes along the event route. Officer Clements was working the City of Newton detail for the Walk for Hunger assigned to the motorcycle to assist with traffic. Officer Clements front wheel, left side of the motorcycle and left leg collided with the rear end of the motor vehicle. The impact of the crash caused him to fall off the left side of the motorcycle and land on the street face first. At this time I immediately ran from my post to Officer Clements location and radioed dispatch that a motorcycle officer was down and that I needed assistance. As I approached Officer Clements he was face down, unconcious and breathing. I was able to roll Officer Clements into the recovery position and at this time Officer Clements regained conciousness and was able to speak and stated " What happened? What was that lady doing she turned right into me". I advised Officer Clements that he had just been involved in an accident and to stay still and that help was on the way. The operator of the motor vehicle identified as Helen Leibner (S52717988) stopped her vehicle immediatley after the crash and got out of her vehicle to offer her assistance. I advised Helen and several other witnesses and bystanders who were now crowding around Officer Clements and I to back away from the scene and to not move any of the vehicles involved. Officer Selig arrived on scene and was able to help crowd control until further help arrived. Helen and all witnesses were advised to stand by for police to take their statements. While tending to Officer Clements he was disoriented and made several attempts to move his body to which I had to physically hold him still to prevent possible further injuries. While speaking with Officer Clements I noticed blood coming from the inside of his mouth. Officer Clements was in a noticeable amount of pain. He complained of head, back and left leg pain. Officer Clements was wearing a yellow ANSI certified Newton Police reflective jacket and a Newton Police issued motorcycle helmet. Once the paramedics and fire personnel arrived I was able to speak to the operator of the motor vehicle and several other witnesses. Helen stated she was traveling southbound on Centre Street operating her blue 2014 Audi A4 (MA REG 213BC9). Helen states she was attempting to take a left turn onto Gibbs Street and activated her left turn signal. Helen states she had stopped halfway into the northbound lane as several pedestrians were crossing Gibbs Street in the crosswalk at the time. Helen states after the pedestrians cleared she saw the traffic cones blocking the street and realized the street was closed. Helen states she turned her vehicle back into the southbound traffic lane and did not see Officer Clements or the motorcycle until impact. Helen was not injured and her motor vehicle sustained moderate rear end damage. Her motor vehicle was able to drive away from the scene. Witness Adron Gordon (S90357161) stated he was participating in the Walk for Hunger and had just crossed over Gibbs Street when the crash occured. He stated he witnessed the Officer on the motorcycle with the emergency lights on traveling southbound on Centre Street behind the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle stopped in traffic attempting to turn left onto Gibbs Street. He states then the vehicle made a slight turn back into the southbound traffic lane and the motorcycle collided with the rear end of the motor vehicle. He states the Officer then fell off the motorcycle landing in the middle of Centre Street. Witness Elizabeth McCarthy (S00242346) and Katherine Regan (S43486601) stated they both were in the same vehicle together stopped in traffic in the northbound lane of Centre Street just before the set of lights at Centre Street and Bowen Street. Both witnesses stated they do not remember if the driver of the motor vehicle had the turn signal on but they did see her attempt to turn onto Gibbs Street. They stated they also saw the motorcycle with emergency lights activated travel southbound on Centre Street approaching behind the vehicle. Witnesses state the motor vehicle then suddenly turned back into the southbound lane and the motorcycle collided with the passenger side tailight of the motor vehicle. Both witnesses state the motorcycle attemped to turn away from the vehicle to avoid the crash but was unable to do so. Witness Nina Wang (S39460985) stated she was parked on the southbound lane of Centre Street just prior to the crash scene. Nina states she was in her City of Newton DPW marked vehicle with the hazards on as she was working to assist with traffic safety for the Walk for Hunger. Nina states she witnessed the motorcycle travel southbound on Centre Street and pass the vehicles stopped in the traffic lane. Nina states the motorcycle passed the traffic using the left side and had the emergency lights activated. Nina states the motorcycle was just passing through the green light at Centre Street and Bowen Street when the motor vehicle that was stopped at the lights attempting to take a left turn onto Gibbs Street. Nina states the vehicle then abruptly jerked her car to the right and collided with the motorcycles left side. Nina states she heard a loud crash and witnessed the Officer fall off the motorcycle and land face first onto the street. The motorcycle's final resting place was on its left side approximately two feet away from where Officer Clements was located. The motorcycle sustained moderate damage to its left side, including the front wheel well and undercarriage. The motorcycle left scuff marks on the street which were measured and photographed. Several photographs of the scene and damage to both vehicles were taken and submitted to the IT Bureau. The motorcycle was towed by Todys. Centre Street and Bowen Street are both public ways maintained by the City of Newton. The injured motorcyclist, Officer Clements, was transported to Saint Elizabeth Hospital with fire fighters on board. I was able to follow up with Officer Clements on the phone the next day who was admitted over night at the hospital.

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.

On 06/08/2019 at 0150 hours I received a call from Sgt Lee in regard to a head on motor vehicle crash with entrapment that had occurred on Center St at the four way intersection with Cabot St and Sergeant St. Upon my arrival at the crash scene I was advised by Sgt Lee that all occupants of the involved vehicles had been transported to hospitals for treatment. I made the following observations of the crash scene , Center St is a two lane public way in the city of Newton that runs north to south. I observed a city of Newton contracted Cataldo ambulance stopped in the south bound lane of Center St at Cabot St. The ambulance was MA AMN registration AMB 370 a 2017 Ford Econo Line that had heavy damage to the front end and driver's side fender. I observed that the front tire of the ambulance was snapped off and was pushed back towards the driver's side door.

At the time of the crash, the Cataldo Ambulance was being operated by Paramedic Corey Bohan and Paramedic Tom White was in the front passenger seat. Bohan stated that he was operating his vehicle southbound on Center St towards Cabot St after clearing a medical call. There were no patients in the ambulance at the time of the crash, and Bohan estimated he was travelling 25 MPH . Bohan stated within less than two seconds he observed a vehicle traveling towards him northbound on Center St in the southbound lane and estimated it's speed to be approximately 80 to 100 MPH.Bohan stated he was able to slow to a near stop and had moved his vehicle towards the right shoulder on Center St before the Mazda struck his vehicle head on. Bohan stated that after forcing his way out of the driver's seat of his vehicle, he rendered medical aid to the operator and only occupant of the Mazda, Jessica Pondish. Bohan stated that Pondish speech was slurred and he detected an odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from her breath and person.

Pondish stated that on 06/07/2019 she was at a friend's residence in Norton, MA. Pondish stated that while at her friend's residence she consumed a bottle and a half of Riesling wine. After Pondish's admission myself and Officer Gaudet stopped our conversation with her. I read Pondish her rights directly from a Miranda card and explained them in full before allowing her to continue speaking with myself and Officer Gaudet about the events of that led to the crash. Pondish stated that she understood her rights. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish if she had consumed any alcoholic beverages prior to driving home to her residence in Newton.

Operator of MV2 stated she was traveling Eastbound on Otis Street and taking a left Northbound on Walnut Street. She said that the driver Southbound on Walnut Street let her out to turn, and made the left turn onto Walnut Street. Operator of MV2 stated that she did not know that she hit another vehicle. She said she could have hit a curb. At one point, she said "they hit me". She checked the damage on her car and found a scratch on the right side back bumper area. I confirmed all her information and updated the report as accordingly. Operator of MV2 said she has Traveler's Insurance, but RMV is showing Standard Fire. Operator of MV1 was also notified. No further incident to report.

MV 1 was attempting to turn right west onto Nahanton St when she began to slide and struck the front side of MV 2. MV 1 was attempting to stop at the redlight but could not effectively due to inclimate weather. MV 2 was traveling straight west on Nahanton St when MV 1 slid into her due to inclimate weather. The front left airbag deployed for MV 2 during the collision. EMS and Newton Fire responded. The operator of MV 2 refused medical treatment on scene. Both vehicles were towed by Tody's due to being disabled on a public way. Towed motor vehicle sheets were filled out and filed accordingly.

On 1/23/19 while working N493, I responded to 966 Watertown St for an MVA, car into a building. Business name is TIEM. The operator (operator #1) was the sole occupant of the vehicle (MA reg 4PW429, now known as vehicle #1). I was able to obtain a statement from operator #1 while medics and fire were en route. Operator #1 told me that she was driving eastbound on Watertown St when vehicle #2 (MA reg 1BSN69) pulled out to take a left from the Shell Gas Station at 979 Watertown St. Operator #1 had to swerve to the right in order to avoid a collision with vehicle #2. This caused vehicle #1 to crash into the exterior brick wall of 966 Watertown St. There was airbag deployment and visible structural damage to the business, however it did not appear severe. The operator of vehicle #2 was still on scene and confirmed the events that operator #1 spoke of. Operator #2 stated she did not see vehicle #1 as she was pulling out due to heavy traffic flow and parked cars. Vehicle #2 did not make contact with any other car or structure. Vehicle #1 sustained heavy front end damage and was towed by Tody's. Operator #1 was checked out by the medics but declined transport. The owner of the business affected was notified and responded to the scene. He was provided this report number for insurance purposes. No emergency accomodations or notifications needed be made in regards to the damage. It should be noted that a witness remained on scene and verified what operator #1 said transpired. His contact information was provided and is listed in the appropriate field, along with the business owner info for TIEM. Operator #2 was issued in hand MA citation T2079187 and sent on her way.

Operator #1 states he was attempting to back up spare Engine 11 into the left bay at Fire Station #2, when he accidentally hit a city light pole during the maneuver. The pole is located on the island between the eastbound/westbound lanes of Commonwealth Avenue. The pole was knocked down however it landed completely within the grassy island and is still intact. There is no damage to Engine 11, and Capt Roche notified NPD dispatch to contact DPW about the light pole. Pictures were taken and submitted to IT by myself. No injuries were sustained.

On 02/14/20 at approximately 14:45 I responded to a crash in the parking lot outside of #50 Winchester St- The Tile In Style store. Upon my arrival the Fire Department was already there and I was met by the owner of the building Bruno DiFazio. The vehicle that had struck the building had left the scene but he showed me security footage of the crash. The video showed a white S.U.V. (later determined to be Mass. Reg# 6GEL40 White 2017 Acura RDX owned and operated by Eleonora Revzin) pull slowly into a parking spot and then accelerate up and over the curb and into the building. The crash caused moderate damage to the brick facade and inside wall of the tile store. A short time later, Revzin drove back into the parking lot where I spoke with her. Revzin stated she didn't know why her car had accelerated into the building but she was having some personal issues and may have been distracted. She explained that she left the area because she was shaken up but then as she had time to clear her head, thought she should return to the store. There was minor damage to her vehicle and she stated she was not hurt and didn't want me to call the Medics for an evaluation. I issued Revzin Mass. Citation #T2013436 in hand for N.C.O. 19/75- Failure to use care in stopping and a verbal warning for leaving the scene. City of Newton Inspector Paul Nelson showed up and deemed the building to be structurally safe. N523 Officer Wilson arrived and took pictures of the scene.

Operator of vehicle 1 was parked half up on the sidewalk across from #241 Riverview Ave. He attempted to pull forward and onto the street and forgot there was a fire hydrant in front of him. the vehicle struck the hydrant knocking it from its base. Operator reported no injuries and the vehicle did not require a tow. Officer Gaudet took several digital images and the City was notified about the hydrant.

On 02/26/2020 I responded to the area of Eastbourne Rd and Ireland Rd for a motor vehicle crash involving a pedestrian. Eastbourne RD is a public way which runs from Ward St north bound intersecting with Ireland Rd on the far north end. Ireland RD is a public way which runs west to east. Both the east end and the west end of Ireland Rd are dead ends. The crash occured on Ireland Rd's east end near the intersection of Eastbourne Rd. The crash involved Vehicle 1 described as a 2016 Acura SUV color grey bearing MA passenger registration 3RB127. Vehicle 1 had a valid inspection sticker which expires on 08/30/2020. Vehicle 1 was operated by its owner identified as Barbara Ball. Ball has an active MA Operators License (S18727836). The involved pedestrian was identified as Bruce Terrio. Terrio is an employee of Feeney Brothers Utility Services. Feeney Brothers Utility Services is a contractor of National Grid Gas Company. Upon arrival I observed the following: The crash occurred in the daylight hours around 10:30am on Ireland Rd near the intersection of Eastbourne Rd. At the time of the crash the weather conditions were clear, 48 degrees Fahrenheit and overcast skies (weather.gov). The area where the crash occurred was an active construction site for Feeney Brothers Utility Services. The area of the crash is a dead end. The area is accessed from Ward St from either Eastbourne Rd or Coolidge Rd. The entrances of both Eastbourne Rd and Coolidge Rd had construction signs indicating utility work in the area. At the time of the crash, all roadways were open to vehicle traffic. On the eastbound side of Eastbourne Rd just prior to the intersection of Ireland Rd, I observed a large air compressor which was parked in the roadway facing south bound. No traffic cones were located near the air compressor. To the right of the air compressor were thick green bushes. A wooden fence was located to the right side of the green bushes. On the east side of Ireland Rd I observed a large excavated hole on the right side of the roadway. The hole was near the intersection of Eastbourne Rd and was located approximately three feet from the curb. I observed four traffic cones, two on the front side and two on the left side of the hole. Located on the front edge of the hole was a tire print. Vehicle 1 was located on the west end of Ireland Rd. The front passenger tire of Vehicle 1 had fresh dirt located on the sidewalls and the tire tread. Vehicle 1 appeared to have no visible damage. The pedestrian (Terrio) was being treated by EMS and Fire for injuries. Terrio was wearing brown pants and a green reflective safety vest. I spoke with the operator of Vehicle 1 Barbara Ball. Ball stated that she was operating Vehicle 1 northbound on Eastbourne Rd near the intersection of Ireland Rd. Ball stated that she made a right turn onto Ireland Rd and drove on to the edge of the excavated hole. Ball stated that her vehicle then made impact with Terrio who was in the hole. Ball stated that she immediately stopped, backed out of the hole and called 911. Ball stated that prior to making a right turn onto Ireland Rd, there were no traffic cones in the roadway or next to the hole. Ball stated that as she made the right turn onto Ireland Rd she did not observe Terrio or the hole until it was too late. Ball states that she resides at 80 Eastbourne Rd which is the residence located to the immediate right of the crash location. Ball states that she had been recently parking on Ireland Rd due to ongoing construction at her residence. Ball states that she was traveling at a slow speed prior to impact. At the time of the crash there were three other Feeney Brothers employees working at the site. These workers were identified as Steven Gamble, Mike Cabrinma and Gerard McComaskey. At the time of the crash all three workers were located further up Eastbourne Rd near the intersection of Coolidge Rd and did not observe the crash. At the time of the crash, Newton Police Sergeant Glenn Chisholm was working a paid detail for Feeney Brothers. Sergeant Chisholm stated that he did not observe the crash.Terrio was transported by Cataldo EMS for minor injuries. Several photos were taken of the scene. Photos were taken of the hole with traffic cones and without traffic cones. All photo's were submitted to the IT Bureau. After clearing the scene, I responded to St Elizabeth's Hospital in Brighton, MA to interview Terrio. Terrio stated that at the time of the crash he was standing in the hole on Ireland Rd performing gas utility work. Terrio stated that the front passenger side bumper of Vehicle 1 struck him in the right shoulder. Terrio stated that the impact caused him to lose his balance and fall down in the hole. Terrio states that after falling down he was able to climb out of the hole without assistance. Terrio stated that at the time of impact he was wearing a white hard hat which he thinks struck the pavement on the edge of the hole. Terrio states that at the time of the crash he was working alone in the hole. Terrio states that at the time of the crash traffic cones were located near the hole. Terrio stated that as a result of the impact he sustained minor injuries to his right shoulder and back. I then observed Terrio's hard hat which appeared to have a fresh scrape mark on the top. The hard hat also had broken interior straps. Terrio stated that the straps broke when he was struck by Vehicle 1. Photos were taken of the hard hat and were submitted to the IT Bureau. After reviewing all facts of this incident, Vehicle 1 appeared to have been traveling at a slow speed prior to the crash. This was evident due to the lack of tire skid marks prior to the tire print on the edge of the hole. It also appears that Ball's view of the hole and Terrio may have been obstructed by the parked air compressor on Eastbourne Rd. The thick green bushes and a wooden fence to the right of the air compressor also added to the obstructed view. The hole was also located in close proximity to the air compressor which reduced Vehicle 1's reaction time. Jeff Oliver of OSHA was also notified of this incident. Photographs of the scene were provided to Oliver.

On August 13th, 2020, while working in marked unit N526, I responded to a 2 car MVA involving pedestrians at the intersection of Beacon Street and Chestnut Street, Newton. The weather at the time of the crash was clear and sunny. The road surface was dry. Beacon Street and Chestnut Street are both public ways maintained by the City of Newton. The operator of MV1, Maria Dinapoli (S92626906), stated she was operating her 2018 Toyota Corolla ( MA REG: 1KNW71) heading west on Beacon Street and had the green light at the intersection of Chestnut Street. Dinapoli stated she was traveling straight through the intersection when MV2 which was traveling east on Beacon Street at the time cut infront of her vehicle to take a left turn onto Chestnut Street. Dinapoli stated she applied her brakes but was unable to stop in time and made contact with MV2. The impact of the crash caused MV1 to drive over the curb and onto the sidewalk where it made light contact with a baby stroller with a 1 year old inside. MV1 also struck and damaged a Newton Fire Department box that was located on the sidewalk. The baby stroller was being operated by the mother identified as Anna Gilman (S11328154). The pedestrians reported no injuries and signed patient refusals with Medic 2. MV1 sustained moderate front end damage and was towed from the scene by Todys. Dinapoli also reported no injuries and signed a patient refusal with Medic 2. The operator of MV2, Leena Dolabany (S12410136), stated she was operating her 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee (MA REG: 1TCZ14) heading east on Beacon Street and had the green light at the intersection of Chestnut Street. Dolabany stated she was in a line of cars in traffic waiting to take the left turn onto Chestnut Street. Dolabany stated as the cars infront of her continued through the intersection she took a left onto Chestnut Street and as she was already into the turn she was struck by MV1. MV2 sustained moderate damage to the passenger side panel. Dolabany reported no injuries and signed a patient refusal by Medic 2. A query of all vehicles and parties involved through dispatch determined that MV2 was revoked for insurance. After speaking with the operator I was informed that MV2 had recently switched insurance agencies and Dolabany was able to provide paperwork from Geico Insurance stating the vehicle was insured. Due to the registry not displaying a valid registration, MV2 was towed from the scene by Todys. I advised Dolabany to contact her insurance company and advise them to update their information with the registry so she can retrieve the vehicle. Photographs of the scene and damage to city property were taken by Officer Wilson and submitted to the IT Bureau. On August 14th, 2020 I spoke with the operator of MV2, Leena Dolabany and her father George Dolabany in the front lobby of the police station. They provided paperwork from Geico Insurance that stated the vehicle was infact insured at the time of the accident and that there was an error made by the Registry of Motor Vehicles. Sgt. Devine and I advised them that we have to use the Registry's database for our investigation and because it still states the vehicle is revoked for insurance we can not release the license plates. Sgt. Devine advised them they could get another tow company to come and take custody of the vehicle but the plates will be seized until the registry shows an active status on the registration. I issued Mass uniform citation T2017328 in hand to Leena and advised her she will be summoned for a hearing for the following violations; Ch 90 section 34J Operating MV without insurance and Ch 90 section 9 Unregistered MV.

Ms. Hudson stated the bicyclist then got up from the roadway and began yelling at her that the crash was her fault. I observed a few small fresh scrapes on the outside of the driver side door area. When I initially arrived at the crash location, I observed Officer Lazarakis checking on his well-being of the injured bicyclist, Marc Lind. Lind was observed laying on the sidewalk in front of 780 Beacon Street. After being evaluated by Newton Medics, I spoke with Mr. Lind. Mr. Lind stated he was traveling on his Trek bicycle Eastbound on Beacon Street towards Langley Road.

On Friday, September 18th, 2020 at approximately 1619 hours I, Officer Newton, was dispatched to Brookline St and Spaulding Ln(both are public ways in the City of Newton) for a report of a vehicle that crossed over Brookline St and struck a tree and drove off with major front end damage. The RP was able to give a description of the vehicle as a White Audi with the license plate beginning with 8X. The RP also stated the vehicle was going down Dedham St and possibly turned down Marvin Ln. Sgt M. Wade located the vehicle, White Audi MA Reg 8XVP10, with major front end damage, parked outside of 45 Indian Ridge Rd and made contact with the operator, John Bigda. It should be noted that the house is 2 houses from Marvin Ln. Upon arrival I spoke to John. John stated he was driving his vehicle and got into an accident but it was not a big deal because he was able to drive home. John was not able to explain the details of his crash and was very evasive as to exactly what happened, just that he got into an accident because somebody cut him off. John continued to tell me multiple times nothing bad happened and everything was fine. John was very unsteady on his feet and was stumbling around and almost fell several times while I was trying to speak with him. John also had slurred speech and a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from his person that I was able to smell even though I was wearing a mask. At this time I asked John to take field sobriety tests to which he refused by saying "I'm not taking the test." The Medics arrived on scene to evaluate John. John was not able to answer their questions and the medics decided he should go to the hospital for an evaluation. However, John refused to go to the hospital. NFD arrived on scene and stated they saw tire marks and debris at the location of the crash. Ofc. Guarino went to that location to take pictures that will be added to this report. Due to the above facts and because John was almost falling over while speaking with us, he was placed under arrest for Operating Under the Influence of Liquor. John was handcuffed (D/L) and searched prior to being placed in cruiser 499. Cruiser 499 was searched before and after transport for contraband with negative results.

On 09/21/20 at 14:46 hours, I (Traffic Unit # 523) responded to the parking lot of 88 Chestnut Street for a motor vehicle accident involving a pedestrian. The weather at the time was 60 degrees ( localconditions.com) and the sky was clear and sunny. The road surface was dry. The parking lot is a thru way that the public use to enter/exit the lot or park there. On arrival at the same time with the Fire and Medics, I observed a female laying in the middle of the lot facing down on her back. A small red and gray CVS like type shopping carriage was knocked over and resting on it's side in front of the victim's head. The carriage was moved to the side in order to tend to the victim I also observed a black Honda Civic bearing MA reg.# 3741TW that was involved in the accident. The Honda was out of the parking spot resting approximately two feet away from the pedestrian's legs. I then spoke to the pedestrian identified as Darla Gipson in the rear of the ambulance. She sustained an abrasion to her front left shoulder and arm area which I observed. She also complained of left knee and elbow pain. She stated that she walking through the middle of the parking lot pushing the carriage by the door entrance in a westerly direction towards Chestnut Street. She states that she never saw a vehicle backing up and then she was suddenly struck and believes she was pushed underneath the vehicle. She was then transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital by Cataldo Ambulance. I then spoke to the operator of the Honda Civic identified as Linda Burke (MA S70320414). Ms. Burke was parked in the first spot to the right of the walkway that leads to the entrance/exit doorway. I asked her what occurred and she stated that she was backing her vehicle up to exit the parking lot when she looked behind her not seeing anything in sight. She then started backing up and struck the pedestrian without realizing it. She says the driver of a green cab and his female customer who were no longer on scene were yelling at her to stop her vehicle because the pedestrian was underneath it. She then stopped her vehicle. I observed minor scrapes to the entire rear bumper of the vehicle so it is unknown where it actually struck the pedestrian/carriage. I observed no obvious signs of damage to the carriage. It should be noted that Ms. Burke's Honda does not have a back up camera or back up sensors. There are no surveillance cameras to the apartment complex and no witnesses came forward for the accident. As a result of the investigation, Ms. Burke will be issued Uniform Citation # T1271069 for Newton City Ordinance 19-75 Failure To Use Care in Backing. Digital photos were taken by me of the scene.
