BOSTON (WHDH) - Former Boston City Councilor Kendra Lara agreed to a plea deal in connection with a 2023 car crash.

Lara pled guilty to driving a motor vehicle with a suspended license. She was also found to be responsible for not placing her 7-year-old son in a car seat.

In June of 2023, Lara crashed her car into the home of an 84-year-old woman on Centre Street in Jamaica Plain. Lara’s son was injured in the crash.

The former city councilor was also required to write a letter to the woman whose home she hit.

Several other charges were dismissed.
