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.

The operator of MV1 stated that she was traveling southbound on Chestnut street when she lost control of her vehicle causing the vehicle to jump the curb and run over a city speed limit sign breaking it at the base. The city was notified of the broken sign and pictures were taken and placed in ITs mailbox to be attached to the report. The vehicle sustained a right rear flat tire and was towed by AAA. All parties reported no injuries and signed a patient refusal.

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.

On 01/31/19 at 08:56 hours, I responded to Dedham and Walnut Streets for a two car motor vehicle accident with no injuries. Operator of M/V 1 states he was stopped for the stop sign facing northbound on Dedham St towards Walnut St. He then proceeded straight through and observed M/V 2 coming at him so he tried to speed up but M/V 2 ended up striking him on the driver's side rear quarter panel area. He did state that M/V 2 did stop for the stop sign after him but did not understand why they were attempting to come through the intersection. The vehicle sustained minor damage to the driver's side rear quarter panel area and had a flat tire. The operator waited for Triple AAA for the flat. Operator of M/V 2 states she was stopped at the stop sign facing eastbound on Dedham St attempting to take a left turn on to Walnut St. Due to the bright sun and glare, she did not observe M/V 1 coming through the intersection and struck him. The vehicle sustained front end damage to the grille and bumper but the vehicle was still driveable. At the time, I did observe the sun to be blinding at the accident location and there was a lot of glare.

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 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.

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. MV1 struck MV2 hard enough that MV2 was pushed across the lane and into MV3 that was stopped at the stop sign southbound. According to the operator of MV2, MV1 was traveling "way too fast for conditions" over 30mph. Operator MV1 was cited for 89/9 failed to stop for stop sign and 90/17 speeding too fast for road conditions. Operator was also cited on Citation T1272992 for 90/23 operating after suspended license.

On 2/25/2019 at approx 1130hrs while assigned to 497 I responded to the intersection of Commonwealth Ave and Chestnut St for a two car crash. Upon arrival I met with the operator of Ma reg RDTAIL ,Steve MCCULLOUGH who stated he was traveling NB on Chestnut St through the green light when he was suddenly struck by the operator of Ma Reg 298CBV George DIARBAKERLY who was travelling EB on Commonwealth Ave. I spoke with DIABAKERLY who initially stated he thought he had the green light but perhaps it changed, than stated maybe he was too far back when he saw the green light. MCCULLOUGH gave me the names of two people who had stopped , Matt DOLITKA 617-719-7621 and Dr J LAUFFLER 617-968-6343.

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).

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*

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.

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.

Delaney stated that Rubion was not wearing a helmet or any other safety equipment. I spoke with Delaney(cid:31)s father Royston Delaney, who stated that the scooter was his and that he was unaware that Rubino was using his scooter, and that he has never seen him ridding it before. Royston Delaney stated that the scooter is battery powered and has a maximum speed of 19 MPH. Royston Delaney stated that his son told him that only Rubino was ridding the scooter. Rubino was transported via ambulance to Boston Children(cid:31)s Hospital. On 05/20/2019 Rubino underwent surgery for a brain bleed.

Based upon witnessed statements and my observations of the crash area I believe that Rubion was at fault for the cause of this crash. Myself and Officer Helms took photos of the crash area and the disks were turned over to the NPD(cid:31)s IT bureau for downloading.

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. I further observed that both of the front and side air bags of the ambulance were deployed. The front of the ambulance's final point of rest was 8'8" from a fixed overhead light pole on the northeast corner of Center St at Cabot St. The ambulance's front passenger side tire was 4'3" front the curb on the Cabot St side. The ambulance's rear passenger side tire was 2'3" from the Cabot St side curb. The ambulance's rear driver side tire was 5'1" from the double yellow line on Center St. The ambulance's front driver side tire was 6'3"from the Center St double yellow line. The width of Center St from the double yellow line to the Center St curb is 15'' and 16'" to the Sergeant St side. I observed a 2011 Mazda 3 with MA PAN registration 6KJ783 facing south bound in the north bound lane. The Mazda had heavy damage to it's front end, and I observed that it's front tires had snapped off. The Mazda's roof had been removed by Newton Fire to extract the occupant.

The Mazda's rear passenger side tire was 1'2" from the Center St double yellow line. The Mazda's front driver's side tire was on the curb on the Sergeant St side of Center St. There were no skid marks from the Mazda which indicates that no braking occurred. 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. Bohan was later transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for evaluation. The passenger in the ambulance, Tom White stated to officers that he was working on the ambulance's laptop computer and did not see anything leading up to the impact from the crash. White stated that he was able to force himself free of the passenger side of the ambulance, and rendered medical aid to Pondish. White stated that Pondish was " in and out of it " and did not appear coherent.White stated that he asked Pondish if she had consumed any alcoholic beverage and she nodded in the affirmative. White Stated that he was unsure if Pondish understood his questions. White stated that he did not detect any odor of an alcohol beverage emanating from Pondish's breath or person. White was transported to Newton Wellesley Hospital for evaluation. Pondish was freed from her vehicle after approximately 22 minutes by Newton Fire Department units by utilizing special extraction tools. Pondish was transported by Newton Medic Unit Two to the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston for treatment. From 06/08/2019 to 06/10/2019 Pondish had two surgeries and was unable to speak due to her condition. On 06/10/2019 myself and Officer Gaudet were able to speak with Pondish in her hospital ICU room at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. Pondish's parents Lorena and John Pondish were present while we spoke with her. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish about the events that led up to the crash. 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. Pondish stated that she drank a bottle and a half of Riesling wine by herself between the hours of 1700 and 0000 hours on 06/08/2019. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish how large the bottles of wine was that she drank, and she stated that they were average size. Officer Gaudet asked Pondish how she perceived her state of being was after consuming a bottle and a half of wine. Pondish stated that she felt " buzzed " . Pondish stated that she left her friend's residence in Norton at approximately 0100 hours on 06/08/2019 to return to her residence in Newton.

Pondish stated that her seat belt was on and that she was not texting while operating her vehicle. Pondish stated that her injuries consisted of a broken left elbow and internal injures to her intestines. On 06/09/2019 I spoke to Cataldo Paramedic Robert Canning and Stephen Heirholcer who were the medic unit that transported Pondish to the Brigham and Women's Hospital. Canning stated that he rendered medical aid to Pondish for approximately 20 minutes while Fire units worked to free her. Canning stated that Pondish's legs were pinned under her vehicle's dashboard. Canning stated that during the approximately 20 minutes that he was in close proximity to Pondish he could detect a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage that was emanating from her breath and person. Canning stated that once Pondish was freed he continued to treat and monitor her during the transport to the Brigham and Women's Hospital. Canning stated that when he asked Pondish if she had consumed any alcoholic beverage she stated that she had. Paramedic Heirholcer stated that he did not detect any odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from Pondish's breath or person. Based upon the physical evidence at the crash scene, and statements made to officers by all of the above mentioned persons, Pondish is being charged with violation of MGLs 90/24j OUI liquor, 90/24e negligent operation of a motor vehicle, 89/4a failure to stay within marks lanes, and 90/17 speeding. On 06/12/2019 at the conclusion of the crash investigation I issued MA Criminal Application T 1269996 in hand to Pondish at her hospital room and explained to her what action she needed to take with court. On 06/11/2019 a letter of preservation was sent to Brigham and Women's Hospital requesting that a sample of Pondish's blood, urine and medical records be saved. On 06/12/2019 Brigham and Women's Hospital confirmed that a sample of Pondish's blood had been preserved. As of 06/12/2019 a search warrant for Pondish's blood sample was pending.

He did not know where vehicle one had originated from and just that it was traveling West on Watertown Street. Mr. Dill also saw vehicle two approaching from Walnut Street heading North and was not speeding. Mr. Dill estimated that 3-5 seconds had gone by when he first heard the siren to when the initial impact of vehicles one and two occurred. Witness James Davis-Sanon was driving a large MWRA utility work truck. He was the first car in the right turn only lane on Walnut Street. He stated that Walnut Street had the green light and he stopped before the intersection to allow vehicle one to continue going West on Watertown Street.

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.

The operator of MV#1 stated that he has just entered the rear lot of the Speedway Gas Station and was attempting to back into a parking space when MV#2 backed into his MV.

On Tuesday, March 31st 2020, at approximately 5:11pm, I, Officer Brooks, responded to 580 Washington street for a motor vehicle accident. Upon arrival I spoke with the operator of MV1(MA REG 5TRL60) who stated he was pulling out of the parking lot of 580 Washington street, and was attempting to turn left to head westbound on Washington street. He stated he was already in the first eastbound lane of traffic when MV2( MA REG 1KL458) came at a high rate of speed eastbound on Washington street in the center lane and struck his vehicle. After striking his vehicle, MV2 hit MV3(MA REG7BG273) which was parked legally in front of 580 Washington street. The collision caused MV3 to hit MV4(MA REG 3AGN11) which was parked legally in front of MV3. MV1 had damage to the front passenger side bumper. I then spoke with the operator of MV2 who stated she was traveling eastbound on Washington street in the far right lane. She states MV1 pulled out of the parking lot of 580 Washington street and struck her vehicle causing her to loose control and hit MV3 which was parked. Her car had airbag deployment and damage to the passenger side rear wheel well as well as the front end. MV 3 had damage to the rear end and front end. MV4 had minor scratches to the rear bumper. Nobody was injured in the accident, and the operator of MV2 signed a refusal with Cataldo. Tody's towed MV2 due to the damage. A motor vehicle inventory was filled out and filed.

The OP. of MV#1 was unable to give me a statement due to a possible head injury. He kept repeating "where's my car" and "what happened?" Witness#1 (Mr. Regan) states he was travelling westbound on Auburn St. when MV#1 went to the oncoming traffic lane and passed him on the left at a high rate of speed. He estimates the speed at 70mph. He saw MV#1 hit the speed bump on Auburn St., possibly losing control, and then onto Evergreen Ave. with a large cloud of dust. Witness#2(Mr. Weishaus) was on his balcony and observed MV#1 travel at a high speed of rate on Auburn St. He estimates the speed at 100mph. He observed MV#1 go up Evergreen Ave., launch into the air and crashed. Witness#3(Mr. Litvak) states he was on his porch and heard a loud sound of a motor engine approaching. MV#1 then crashed into his retainer wall and flew through some trees before landing on his neighbor's yard. Based on witness statements and the accident scene, it appears that MV#1 went off the roadway and struck a retainer wall at #15 Evergreen Ave, launched into the air and struck parked MV#2 in the process, went through some trees that flipped the car around before landing on the property of #23 Evergreen Ave. The OP. of MV#1 was ejected from the vehicle at some point in time.

On 06/10/2020 at approximately 16:30 hours, Sgt. Lee (Unit 531) and I (Unit 523) responded to Waverley Avenue and Sargent Street for a two car motor vehicle accident that involved one vehicle rolling over and a possible head injury to that driver. The accident occurred at 16:11 hours on this date. Both streets are public ways and maintained by the City of Newton. On arrival, I observed a black Hyundai Elantra (MV1) bearing MA Reg.# 1DHN15 resting in the middle of the intersection facing eastbound on Sargent Street heading towards Kenrick Street. The vehicle had heavy front end damage. I then observed a gray Honda CRV (MV2) bearing MA Reg.# 8DZB10 rolled over resting on it's hood facing in a northeasterly direction in the southbound travel lane of Waverley Avenue just past the intersection. I observed the point of impact to be on the passenger side rear wheel area due to the damage which included a large dent above the tire well. Digital photos were taken of the scene and intersection. At this point the operator, Jose Valderrama (MA DL# S27590058), of MV2 was already transported to Beth Israel Hospital in Boston, MA for a possible head injury. The operator was also not aware of what occurred at the time by the responding officers. It was also determined by the initial responding officers (Sgt. Rooney, Ofc. Pohlman & Ofc. Anderson) that Mr. Valderrama driver's license was suspended in Massachusetts by NPD Dispatch. Next, I spoke to the operator of MV1 identified as Cora Lyden (ME DL# 8625330). Lyden states that she was traveling straight ahead (EB) on Sargent Street attempting to go straight through the intersection on to Kenrick Street. She says as she approached the intersection the signal light changed to yellow and she proceeded through when she suddenly saw MV2 coming at her. She then jammed on her brakes and then made contact with the other vehicle. She says that the other driver must have been speeding and went through the red light. Next, Sgt. Lee and I responded to Beth Israel Hospital for a follow up on Mr. Valderrama. The hospital staff stated that there were no signs of a head injury and that he was now coherent. He sustained road rash on his left arm and shoulder area due to the seatbelt and front air bag deployment. We then spoke to him and he stated that he was traveling straight ahead (SB) on Waverley Avenue at about 30 to 35 miles per hour. He says that his signal light was green when he attempted to go through the intersection and another motor vehicle made contact with him. After that, he does not recall what occurred. I asked him if he saw the other vehicle approaching and he stated that he did not see it. After at the station, I followed up with Dispatch and they stated that there was two people that called in to report the accident that they attempted to call back to see if they witnessed the event. They had since not returned their call. I then called both numbers and both parties stated that they were only notifying us and did not observe the accident occur. Due to conflicting statements by both operators and no witnesses on scene, I am unable to determine fault for the accident. Mr. Valderrama will be issued MA Uniform Citation #T2080466 for Ch. 90/S23/E Operating a Motor Vehicle after Suspension of License. Tody's towing responded and towed both vehicles. M/V inventories completed by me.

On 6/26/2020 at approx 1214hrs while assigned to 497 I responded to the area of Washington St at Quinobequin Rd for a report of a 2 car crash with air bag deployment.

I ascertained the operators were not hurt and called for two tows and NFD for speedy dry. I spoke with the operator of the red Toyt Brendan OCONNOR who stated he was travelling EB on Washington St, had the green light, was proceeding through the intersection when he was struck by the operator of the Toyt Rav 4,Gabriella NUGENT. I spoke with NUGENT who stated she was attempting to take the left onto Quinobequin Rd from the WB lane of Washington St when she collided with OCONNOR. NUGENT acknowledged that although the light was green WB she did not have the left arrow to turn. Both cars towed by Todys, both Nugent and OCONNOR signed patient refusals with Cataldo ambulance.

On Wednesday, 7/1/2020, at 2230hrs, I was dispatched to the area of 856 Watertown St for a report of a possible car crash. Watertown St is a public way as it is owned and maintained by the City of Newton. Upon arrival, I met with operator, Henok Kiflit, who was out of the vehicle and very disorientated. I observed a gash on his head right above his eye and noticed all airbags had been deployed in his vehicle. I asked him to sit down and I radioed for an ambulance. Kiflit stated that he was driving EAST on Watertown St when he collided with a unoccupied parked car (a red 2015 Jeep Wrangler, MA Con R22519) which was parked on the street outside of 856 Watetown St. Kiflit was driving his girlfriend's car (a gray 2020 Nissan Sentra, MA Reg 1ANN57) and was on his way home in Watertown. When I asked for Kiflit's license, he told me that he only has a permit and has yet to take the test. He apologized repeatedly. Kiflit did not have any passengers in his vehicle. Kiflit said the roadway was so dark and he didn't see the parked Jeep. He claimed he was not speeding. There was minimal damage done to the drivers side rear bumper of the Jeep. The Nissan had extensive front end damage and was subsequently towed by Tody's Towing. Towed motor vehicle form filled out and filed, copy made for police prosecutor.

On Tuesday, September 1, 2020, while assigned to marked unit N496, I responded to the area of 780 Beacon Street, Newton for a report of a motor vehicle crash involving a bicyclist. The weather at the time of the crash was clear and sunny. The road surface was dry. Beacon Street is a public way maintained by the City of Newton. I spoke with the operator of the vehicle involved in the crash, Dina Hudson (S33833807). Ms. Hudson stated she was sitting in her 2015 white Jeep Grand Cherokee (MA: 727SZ7) that was parked (E) in a metered parking spot in front of 780 Beacon Street. Ms. Hudson stated traffic in the Eastbound lane of Beacon Street to her left was stopped. There was a red light ahead at the intersection and traffic had built up past where her vehicle was parked. Ms. Hudson stated she opened her driver side door while she was looking for her debit card to go to the bank. Ms. Hudson stated at this time a bicyclist was traveling at a high rate of speed around the stopped traffic towards the intersection and crashed into her driver side door. Ms. Hudson stated the operator of the bicycle then traveled further up the roadway and crashed behind a vehicle stopped in traffic. Ms. Hudson stated she was unsure if the bicyclist crashed into the stopped vehicle or if it had landed on the roadway just before it. 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.

On 9/27/20 I was Working N497 when I responded to an MVA with rollover in the area of Chestnut and Beacon St. along with multiple other units. Upon arrival at 565 Chestnut St. (which is a publicway in the city of Newton) I spoke with the operator of Veh 1 Jenna Wolf. Wolf stated that she was traveling northbound on Chestnut St. when a Vehicle traveling southbound swerved at her causing her to swerve to the left causing her to jump the curb and collide with a parked car. Wolf stated the car then rolled over and she was able to climb out on her own. Wolf had a laceration to the head that was bleeding so Newton Medics transported her to NWH for treatment. Wolf had a moderate smell of alcoholic beverages emanating from her person and glassy eyes and was slurring her words. Wolf was not asked to do field sobriety due to her injuries. The first parked car (Veh 2) that was struck by Veh 1 slid across the driveway and struck Veh 3, also causing damages to the driveway and yard. The Vehicles owner Vladimir Berezovsky was notified and provided a report number. Veh 2, and Veh 3 were disabled and towed away by Todys at the owners request. A witness named Reza Dana spoke with Ofc. T Keefe and stated "We were traveling down Beacon St. and had a green light at the intersection of Chestnut St. when two cars came speeding northbound on Chestnut St. and ran the red light at Beacon St. almost killing him". Then one of the cars went off the road and struck a parked car causing it to rollover. Veh 1 came back through dispatch as unregistered.
