Billerica man charged with hit and run that killed motorcyclist on Bowdoin Street in Dorchester

Mark Lundy, 24, had bail set at $25,000 yesterday on charges he killed Guy Beaubrun by hitting him with his car on Bowdoin Street near Geneva Avenue and that he then drove away around 1:30 a.m. on July 8, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.

Prosecutors had asked for bail of $75,000 at Lundy's arraignment in Dorchester Municipal Court on charges of motor vehicle homicide by reckless operation, leaving the scene of a crash causing personal injury or death, operating with a suspended license, and a marked lanes violation

According to the DA's office:

Private and publicly-owned security cameras in the area captured the suspect vehicle’s movements before and after the collision. The footage captured the vehicle cross the double yellow line while passing a turning vehicle immediately before the crash, and then continue traveling on Bowdoin Street as other vehicles stop and witnesses run toward the roadway. Boston Police released still images from this and other footage in an effort to locate the vehicle and identify its driver, leading to multiple tips from members of the public.

[Assistant District Attorney Hadler] Charles told the court that these witness statements, along with footage from multiple cameras and Registry of Motor Vehicle records, were used to identify the vehicle involved in the crash and obtain an arrest warrant charging Lundy - whose driver’s license is currently suspended - as the person operating it at the time. MBTA Transit Police officers stopped the vehicle early yesterday morning and placed him under arrest.

Innocent, etc.

Wow, a ton of hard police work went into identifying and arresting this guy. Nice to see that they take such a horrible act so seriously.
