FOIL Results So Far For Auto Accident Involving Car Landing On Top Of Other Car.
/After the car accident of the car hitting the parked car, in which the moving vehicle came to a stop on top of the parked car, many readers asked "How did it happen?" One reader wrote into A Little Beacon Blog to ask if a rumor was true that the Police Report was being withheld.
ALBB told the reader that we can’t speak for other media publication’s requests, but that ALBB submitted our FOIL the day after the accident, knowing that it takes the officers time to file it. If there is an open investigation, the Police Report may not be released. So ALBB waited.
This week on November 9th, just eight days after the accident, ALBB received 3 documents. ALBB’s request to the City of Beacon was: “Please provide Police Report for accident that happened across from Distortion at 155 Main Street.” These are the 3 pages that were sent over. It is unclear at this time if other Police Reports exist for this incident.
Four people are listed as being Persons Involved, but all of their names, genders, and roles in the accident are redacted in the FOIL that was prepared for ALBB. There is a line for Race and Address, but that is not filled out for any person involved.
Personnel Involved are listed as Seth M. Nash, Tyler Joseph Rath, and Trevor L. Wood. Units involved were listed for Rath and Nash.
Three vehicles are listed as being involved, but all of their details have been redacted: Plate, Year/Make/Model, and Vin.
The describing detail about the accident was: "vehicle hit parked car - gas leaking; fd/ems notified."
It states that the Fire Department and EMS were on the scene one minute later, with High End Auto arriving 29 minutes later. High End Auto was officially made the City of Beacon’s tow truck company on March 29, 2022, according to the Resolution signing it into law/contract. According to that resolution, High End Auto bought Cervone Auto Body Inc., who was contracted with the City as their official towing company “for many years,” the Resolution said.
