Operator of MV1 states he was traveling eastbound on Nahanton Street approaching Winchester Street when he entered through the intersection and struck a deer that unexpectedly appeared from the woods crossing the roadway. MV1 sustained minor damage to the front right bumper and headlight.

Witness 1 stated that vehicle 1 was travelling northbound on Nahanton St. Vehicle 1 made a left hand turn, westbound onto Winchester St. During the turn the right side of vehicle 1 made contact with the crosswalk signal post. I observed the post to be leaning due to the impact. The witness was unable to get a plate number, but was able to tell me that it was a commercial truck with a California registration. Dispatcher Brunelle notified Dagle to fix the light post. Photos were taken of the pole, and submitted to the IT bureau.

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.
