2:48 p.m. Officers, firefighters and an ambulance crew responded to the scene of a vehicle accident on Atlantic Avenue. Upon his arrival one officer observed a grey 2023 Toyota Rav 4 crashed into the back of a black 2007 Toyota Camry. As he was approaching the scene, he observed a bystander assisting the driver of the Toyota Rav 4 over to a bench on the sidewalk. After a conversation with the driver, the officer then started to walk the scene and observed a Black 2025 Volvo XC90 that the Rav 4 had also struck. The officer spoke to the owner of the Volvo who told him that her vehicle was parked in front of 33 Atlantic Ave., and she had come back to her vehicle to find it had been hit, suffering heavy damage on the left side and requiring it to be towed from the scene. The officer then spoke with the owner of the Toyota Camry who said he did not observe the accident but heard it while he was inside 33 Atlantic Ave. After seeing that his vehicle had been struck, the Camry owner helped the Rav 4 driver out of his vehicle and onto the bench. Both vehicles were towed away from the scene. The officer then went into Johnny Ray’s Music Emporium and spoke with an employee, who was able to show him surveillance footage of the accident. The video showed the Rav 4 headed outbound on Atlantic Avenue and sideswiping the Volvo, which caused the driver to lose control of his vehicle and crash into the back of the Camry. The driver did not appear to be driving at an excessive speed and just drifted into the parked cars due to the condition he was in, according to the officer’s report. The Rav 4 was inventoried prior to being towed from the scene.

10:28 a.m. An officer spoke over the phone with a woman who reported that her vehicle’s tires appeared to have been slashed on Pleasant Street, which she had discovered while starting to back out of her driveway, only to get a low-pressure alert. She got out of the car and discovered three slash marks to her front passenger tire, which appeared to have been made by a sharp tool. The woman later emailed the officer photos that showed gouge marks in three different locations on her tire. The officer noted that the tire in the photo appeared to be deteriorated, and the rim had scuff marks throughout. The woman suspected that her neighbor may have slashed the tire, though she had no proof of that, and he had not made any threats. However, the woman a few days earlier had called police to lodge a noise complaint about him. The officer asked if she had any cameras on her property, but she did not. The officer then spoke with the neighbor, who told the officer that there was no bad blood between him and his neighbor, adding that he had no reason to go around slashing tires. He mentioned speaking to an officer earlier in the week about him doing work on his property, which she did not like. But he said that he never went near her vehicle and reiterated that he had no business slashing tires.
11:32 a.m. An officer took a report over the phone regarding credit card fraud. A woman reported that a Walmart credit card had been opened under her name and used to purchase a PlayStation video game system and a pair of headphones for $919.45. The woman said that she did not own a Walmart credit card and had never attempted to apply for one. The woman had called Walmart and reported the fraudulent purchases and was assured that the card would be canceled without her needing to pay anything. The woman said she never gave her personal information out to anyone and that she rarely shops online. The officer advised her to monitor her accounts to make sure no other charges were made.

7:29 a.m. An officer took a report over the phone regarding a lost iPhone.
I spoke with Therese MacDonald who claimed to have lost her iPhone since that night and she had lost her phone that evening and never found it. The phone had been lost for a while, but around a week ago, she checked her Find my iPhone app, and it showed her phone pinging in the area of Broughton Road, though there had been no new pings since then. The officer advised the woman to call right away if there were new pings so that an officer could attempt to locate it for her. Based on the radius of the ping and it being a week old, the officer told her that the phone could be somewhere else or in any one of the apartments. The woman said understood and did not want to get anybody in trouble but wanted to locate her phone so that she could trade it in.
2:15 p.m. An officer assisted with school crossing on Dartmouth and Cornell roads.
