Boston City Councilor Kendra Lara is accused of driving more than double the speed limit before crashing into a Jamaica Plain home, according to a report released Wednesday night by the Boston Police Department.
The crash happened on Centre Street on the afternoon of June 30. Police said in an incident report at the time that Lara was driving an unregistered, uninsured car with a revoked license. She was also reported to the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families because her 7-year-old son, who was injured in the crash, was not in a child seat.
A witness to the crash told police he was about to exit a parking space when he noticed a car headed toward his vehicle at a high speed. He didn't leave the space, he said, and the car passed him, making a hard left into the fence outside the home before crashing into it. According to the report, Murray further determined that if she had been going the speed limit,"Lara would have only needed 33.60 feet to come to a complete stop," and that at 53 miles per hour, she would have needed 151.092 feet.NBC10 Boston requested the police report from the location where Councilor Kendra Lara and her son were involved in a crash. The police report redacts the name of the driver.
The boy not being in a booster seat previously resulted in police filing a 51A report with the DCF. That form is used if a person is accused of child abuse or neglect, Murray found that the child's seat belt might not have been properly fastened because his blood was found on the arm rest between the driver's seat and passenger seat, as well as behind the passenger seat.
