This may be a shot in the dark, but I’m trying to help a family member track down a possible black SUV that rammed into his BMW on Walnut St Peabody this afternoon. The perpetrator did briefly get out of his vehicle and handed my family member a written down phone number, but did not stay on the scene to exchange any other information and sped off in his smoking car. Family member tried to call the number he was given and found out it was fake.

This family member was in shock when it happened so he cannot recall what the man looked like and was not able to get the exact make, model or license plate. The only reason why we think it’s a black SUV is because the paint left on the bumper is black, and the position of the impact is higher than a normal sedan.

Police were contacted and a file will be opened. Family member is feeling sore and in the hospital getting checked out.

I want to help them if I can. Any information no matter how minor would be helpful. Any push this can get would be appreciated as well. Thank you.

Hi all, any recs for a nice fine-dining-ish weekday lunch within 45 mins of Boston? I'm picturing a nice historic inn, but it doesn't have to be at an inn. I realize I'm looking for a unicorn here lol.

EDIT: Thank you for all the wonderful suggestions! Up to an hour drive is fine too, actually.

What should I do today? And please don’t say apple picking!
