On 02116115 at approx. 0915 Ofc. Costa and 1 (Ofc. James Payne), while in full uniform assigned to the B 

Sector ofthe 8am to 4pm shift in marked cruiser #669, were dispatched to 125 Access Rd. for a report of a past 

illegal dumping report. 

Upon our arrival we spoke with the Chief Operating Officer ofFiightlevel Aviation Michael Delaria. 

Delaria told me that he is in the middle of a property dispute with Christopher Donovan. Donovan is the owner 

· ofBoston Aviation.

Delaria told me that on Friday (02/ 13/15) he hired a company to put up barriers between the Flightlevel 

Aviation property and Boston Executive Helicopters property. Delaria said that the barriers contained a mixture 

of water and glycol. The placement of the barriers was a result of a property dispute between the two companies. 

I Delaria told me that he had video surveillance of the barriers. Delaria said that the video surveillance shows two 

individuals knocking over the barriers and spilling the contents of the barriers. Delaria said that he believed that 

the two individuals on the video surveillance are Donovan and another employee Robert Silva. Delaria also told 

us that a clean up crew was contacted by the Norwood Memorial Airport staff. Due to the hazardous material a 

specialized crew was required and also the Federal Government was contacted. Delaria told us that an 

investigation into the incident would be conducted by a federal agency 

I then spoke with Flightlevel Aviation Steve Desrosiers. Desrosiers was able to review the video 

surveillance footage with me on his computer. Desrosiers was able to copy the video surveillance footage to a 

disk for me. 

Ofc. Costa and I then went to the Boston Executive Helicopters Hangar to attempt to speak to Donovan. 

At the hangar we were advised that Donovan was not at the business but Silva was present. I explained to Silva 

as to the reason why we were at his business. Silva told me that he is aware of the property dispute between the 

two businesses and he said "they don't like us." Silva was referring to Flightlevel Aviation. Silva then requested 

that we speak to his boss and that his attorney was involved. Silva refused to speak with us about the incident 

and referred to his attomey. 

At this time we responded back to Flightlevel Aviation and retrieved a DVD copy of the video surveillance 

from Desrosiers. 

Upon returning to Norwood Police Headquarters I reviewed the video surveillance footage. The first video 

segment begins on 02/13/15 at 18:50:42. The video shows two individuals at the barriers that then enter the 

Boston Aviation Hangar at 18:51 :50. The two individuals then emerge from the hangar at 1 8:52:48 and return to 

the barriers. I observed that the second video segment is from 02113/15 and starts at 18:52:57. The video 

surveillance depicts the Boston Executive Helicopters Hangar and the orange barriers that were placed between 

the property. The video shows two individuals at the far end of the barriers. The individuals appeared to be 

inspecting the barriers. At 18:54:34 an individual walks over to the Boston Executive Helicopters Hangar and 

then walks back to the barriers. At 18:55:18 the two individuals begin to tip over the barriers and continue 

tipping over each barrier. The individuals stop tipping over the barriers at 18:57:00. The individuals are then 

depicted entering the Boston Executive Helicopters Hangar at 18:57:23. The video continues with no further 

activity.

A third video segment is from 02/ 13/15 at 19:06:37. The video shows a single individual at the barriers. 

The individual walks back and forth from the barriers and the Boston Executive Helicopters Hangar several 

times. The individual is then observed on video entering the Boston Executive Helicopters Hangar at 19:09:00. 

The video continues with no further activity. 

I am unable to identify the two individuals on the video surveillance due to the distance. I was then 

contacted by an Attorney Kathleen Kelly over the phone. Kelly told me that she is representing Donovan and 

Boston Executive Helicopters. She requested that if I was able to share any information with her that l contact 

her directly. I advised Kelly that the incident was under investigation and could not provide any further 

i nforrnation. 

The DVD was then placed into evidence.

On 02/17/15 at approx. 1220 I (Ofc. James Payne), while in full uniform assigned to the B sector of the 

8am to 4pm shift in marked cruiser #662, responded to the Norwood Police Headquarters for a follow up 

investigation. 

Upon my arrival! spoke with Michael Delaria. Delaria provided me with another DVD copy of video 

surveillance. Delaria told me the video surveillance depicted individuals entering/exiting the Boston Executive 

Helicopter Hangar. Also depicted in the video are two motor vehicle's leaving the area of the hangar. Delaria 

told me that he had positively identified the motor vehicle's as being Christopher Donovan's and Robert Silva's 

vehicles. Delaria told me that Donovan drives a Jeep Wrangler that has an extended cab. Delaria said that Silva 

drives a small sedan. 

I then reviewed the video surveillance footage. The video surveillance footage is broken into several 

segments and contains different scenes throughout the evening of 02/13115 and the morning of 02/14/15. The 

segments were labeled by Del aria indicating the contents of the video. 

1 observed on the video surveillance footage the video segment labeled "Chris D Leaving Building" begins 

dated 02/13/15 starting at 19:44:15. The segment shows an individual leaving the Boston Executive Helicopter 

Hangar and walking out of view. The segment ends at 19:44:38. The next segment is labeled "Chris D driving 

off' and starts at 19:44:39. At 19:44:47 there are headlights visible in the video surveillance. At 19:44:57 a Jeep 

Wrangler with an extended cab is seen driving towards the exit of the airport property. 

Another segment is labeled "Rob leaving building." The segment shows an individual leaving the Boston 

Executive Helicopter Hangar at 20:02:05. The individual walks out of camera view and the video ends at 

20:03:10. A segment labeled "Rob driving out" starts at 20:03:10. At 20:03: 18 a sedan is seen driving towards 

the same exit previously used by the Jeep Wrangler. 

A segment labeled "Rob coming back 2.13.15" begins at 22:32:09 and shows a sedan driving from the area 

of the runway towards the Boston Executive Helicopters Hangar. The sedan appears to be the same vehicle that 

was previously viewed in the "Rob driving out" segment. The video ends at 22:32:37 with the sedans lights 

activated at the side garage door of the hangar. The next segment is labeled "Rob closing door" and shows the 

side garage door closing at 22:39:49. 

The final segment labeled "2.14.15 Rob comes out drives truck" is dated 02/14/15 and begins at 10:37:50. 

The video shows an individual leaving the Boston Executive Helicopter Hangar and entering a fuel truck parked 

along side of the hangar. The fuel truck then begins to travel forward. 

Delaria told me that he is aware that Silva stays and lives out of the Boston Executive Helicopter Hangar. 

The video surveillance shows the individuals dumping out the barriers and the individuals entering the hangar. 

The individuals are then depicted leaving the hangar walking off camera view and headlights from vehicles being 

activated. Then it shows vehicles driving across the video surveillance footage towards the exit of the airport. 

Delaria identified the Jeep Wrangler as Donovans' vehicle and the sedan as Silvas' vehicle. 

The video surveillance DVD was later placed into evidence locker 007.
