All features (leaves, buds, bark, fruit) are out of focus... making
definitive ID difficult for me...and there's nothing provided to give any
indication of scale/size.
Bark, as best I can ascertain, is suggestive of Prunus... but the fruits look
very much like a crabapple...
Differentiation between Prunus and Malus would be simple for the friend to
accomplish. ... just cut or bite into a fruit... single stone/pit vs.
multiple seeds.

I have a friend who would like this identified - growing in Quincy, MA.
Says it looks like a cross between an apple and a plum.
