BOSTON, July 19, 2018— A Billerica man was arraigned yesterday in the hit-and-run collision that claimed the life of 41-year-old Guy Beaubrun in Dorchester earlier this month, Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel F. Conley said.

MARK LUNDY, 24, was arraigned yesterday 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. Assistant District Attorney Hadler Charles requested that bail be set at $75,000 and that Lundy be ordered to remain in Massachusetts and submit to GPS monitoring in the event he is to be released on bail. Judge Serge Georges set bail in the amount of $25,000 and imposed the requested conditions of release.

Boston Police responded to the area of 141 Bowdoin Street shortly before 1:30 a.m. on July 8, where Beaubrun, who was operating a 2012 Honda motorcycle, had been struck by a vehicle that did not stop and instead fled the area. Beaubrun was transported to Boston Medical Center, where he died of his injuries.

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.

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.

Lundy was represented by Jessica Tripp. He returns to court Aug. 22.
