I don't think these people are evil. It's called bystander apathy. Everyone thinks someone else will take charge in a situation like this. I personally would be so freaked out I'd be useless. I could never ever walk away, but I would probably just stand gobsmacked for a good few minutes. Or I'd call an ambulance, but I probably wouldn't be able to move. Human beings aren't super heroes. Sometimes we fuck up, and do disgusting things like this, but it's not out of selfishness or evilness.
Honestly there is not much else you can do but call 911. Moving or just even touching him could injure him even more. Thats why when you get in a bad car wreck the cops/emps tell you not to move until medical help arrives.
the people of that community are a waste of space. no sense of duty. i've never been more proud to be from the rural midwest, where human beings live.
its okay, the fucker will burn in hell. the sad thing is, Hartford isn't where this kind of cruel negligence ends. whether you are an atheist, racist, or a fully functioning intelligence lacking scum of the earth, you will get what you rightfully deserve.
I CANNOT believe these people. Each and every one of them who drove by him or stood and stared like an IDIOT at someone who needed DIRE HELP should be ashamed. What the hell is this world coming to? Where the hell is the compassion we are supposed to have? Disgusting. Absolutely DISGUSTING.
RIP Angel Acre Torres. I am sorry I couldn't be there to help you and comfort you myself.
That's why we should always use the "CROSSWALK"!!!!!!!!!!!! I know the people street racing are WRONG... But he could've avoid it by using the "CROSSWALK"!
Plus, how come nobody stopped the traffic??? How come no one saw the body on the road??? If you pay attention to the video you will see the SUV pull over and then take away... Shouldn't they stay and wait for the police???
two wrongs don't make a right. they look like they were racing, meaning that they weren't going to stop for anything seeing as how they were doing something illegal to begin with... people street race all the time. even if they were on the right side of the road, and he wasn't jaywalking, he probably still would have gotten hit... anyone ever think of that?
one wrong isn't 'worse' then another wrong, they're both wrong.
unless theres more then one definition for 'wrong' that i'm not aware of? mabye.. 'illegal'? 'against the law'? because as far as i know... both jaywalking, AND street raceing are both wrong, and illegal... and by the definition of illegal... against the law.
granted, a hit and run is a separate crime entirely, but it could have been avoided easily, were he paying attention... which he wasn't.
It also could of been avoided easily if they weren't racing. On the contrary, I'm pretty damn sure street racing is worse than someone jaywalking. Think about it:
One police officer watched someone jay walking to his left and a street race to his right, which one do you think he would go after..? That's just self explanatory right there. On top of that, they intentionally hit the "jaywalker" as they were racing on the wrong side of the road.
Could you please stop this "It's his fault"-shit? Everytime something really bad happens, there are people like you who want to find reasons for own-fault to please their minds and think everything what happens is kinda "fair". There's nothing wrong with walking over the street if no car is coming and there wasn't ANY car coming from the upper side of the street as he went over it. Just two little fucking street racers which drove away. Fuck them! They shall bleed in hell forever!
oh, so in the same way, its not the street racers fault that they hit that guy, it was the guy crossing the street. yes. that's definitely logic for you.
i've said it before and I'll say it again, two wrongs don't make a right.
didn't anyone ever tell him to look both ways when crossing the street? i would have definably HEARD the cars, then looked over and SAW the cars, then ran the hell out of the way.
This happened to my nephew and my brothers girlfriend, it was on the same location, Park st. -Look both ways before crossing the street, always hold hands with a grown-up. "Grandaddy told yah, or he'll wip yah." - Moving on... =_=
Passerby's reaction isn't a surprise. Humans are scumbags.Only a few were made to care for others. To bad none of those people were around that day. At least someone had the decency to call the police.
well i think it was on puporse because if you pay attention to the video it seems like it was done on purpose. When he qets hit by the car he was on the opposite side of the street and after he was hit they sped off.
This is a barrio, man. You don't do shit because if you talk, or help you get fucked by the "owners" of the barrio. They probably thought he had been ran down by gangsters for some particular reason. That's the way it fucking is.
They always advise you NOT to help a person if you don't have the proper training. You can make there situation worse or even kill them if you don't know what you are doing.
What I find most shocking in this video (besides the racing cars in the wrong lane who hit him, of course) is the behavior of those drivers who, after Torres is hit, drive right on by. How do you drive right past an old man who is lying bleeding in the middle of the road? And if you do, how do you sleep at night?
People should have at least tried to redirect traffic away from him. There had to be at least one person in all those spectators and drivers who knew CPR. I learned it thirty years from the ski patrol and still remember how to at least take a pulse and do CPR. Terrible!
OK well this happens everywhere in the world. It's very unfortunate. The thing that shocked me was all the cars driving by that just kept driving. It's like they slowed down to look and kept going. Those people need to go to jail.
That is unbelievable!!! It's like nothing happened!!! Oh look, someone got hit by a car.... no one helped!!! These people who didn't help are guilty as well!!!
Found this on Wikipedia: "Good Samaritan laws in the United States are laws or acts protecting from liability those who choose to aid others who are injured or ill. They are intended to reduce bystanders' hesitation to assist, for fear of being sued or prosecuted for unintentional injury or wrongful death."
People DID call 911, but what else could you do in that situation? People SAY they would have stopped to help, but what would you have actually done? He had visible head injuries. If you move him it's likely to cause further neck damage, maybe even paralysis.
At least in California, 911 calls from cell phones are redirected to CHP (Cal Highway Patrol). That likely explains the delayed 911 calls. You can see people with cells out.
nobody had to touch him they couldve at least shielded him from traffic. Im sure if it was an old white man or a little kid people wouldve poured into the strreets to help him
I would of help him If I notice no one is helping him. But I guest people were shook to see that? I sure would of call the 911 if I had a cell phone, but that what happen when living in Hartford because not everyone cares these days around Hartford, CT.
wow, this is why i got hate for majority of people in hartford ct. atleast here in nyc hood nigga or not you would still help that person know what i mean? but ya hartford ct niggas is wack, stop tryin to be the next nyc cuz that aint gonna happen especially what went on in this video. There was another video like this with news reporters saying nobody even dialed 911??? man i cant wait to drive back out there so i can scrap with one of ya bitch ass niggas
That is pitiful. I'm so glad I don't live in CT. If that happened where I live everyone on the street would have run to help him and somebody would have run after the cars that hit him. Why are all those people just driving by and standing there like they don't know what to do? And that one guy on the motorcycle acts like he stopping to help, then just gawks at the poor guy and drives away. Total loser yankees! Glad the man recovered.
Listen, I think the only idiot here is you. Since you can't even prove a point without insulting people you don't even know. Shame on you!! Also, the person that I replied to didn't specify what year she was talking about. She could have said He died on May 11th of the following year and it would've made more sense for those of us who didn't follow that poor man's story. Get some education so that you can speak better sometimes.
i'd do it! you'd have to be pretty selfish not to go help him just cuz your pussy ass is scared of getting hit by another car, even though that getting hit by a car is a 1 in 3000 chance or some shit like that.
Hello did we all miss something?? They crossed on the wrong side of the road chasing eachother and ht someone and drove off so what is it was jay walking that still was a hit and run...
I love in HTFD I hate this City... Anyone have a 3 bedroom house for rent?
How about picking up some of the trash on Park Street? What a shithole! I can't believe all that money was wasted on trying to fix it up and you idiots won't pick up your trash.
I would have helped if I was in the area at the time. I live in downtown at the rooms for rent on asylum st, above Tuesday's and Tapas. It's called Maison Martineault. But I walk trough there everyday to get my launch at Park St. I was I there at the time, I drag him out of the street and into the shade.
fucking Americans! some of you have no heart! cold pees of shit! i just wanna kick all those asses that are just standing there and do nothing! fucking retards!
Yes 'askegg' a car can still hit you in the crosswalk true(you must be a scholar). But a crosswalk is a device we use that allows us to legally cross the street, and minimize risk of getting hit.
The first mistake I see in this video is a person wondering out in the middle of a busy street, called "jaywalking" and illegal in most places. Then I see two wreckless drivers one hits him and then leave the scene of a crime. Should the drivers be punished of course.

Tu sais, je suis pas trop d'accord avec ce que tu dis.. C'est pas les usa qui sont stupides, c'est juste le manque d'humanité de certaines personnes....que malheureusement on trouve partout, même en france.
Les États Unis sont dépourvu de système de solidarité, il n'y a pas de social, pas d'aide, c'est marche ou crève. Même si il y a des cons partout, c'est leur société qui est comme ça donc forcement les gens ont une certaine mentalité. Le peuple américain se choque rarement, contrairement au peuple français qui manifeste et s'indigne beaucoup.
"Continued"-and ya maybe they didnt have the bleeding heart response to it but they arent careless, evil, world ruining people like your trying to make them out 2 be, that would be the fucking drivers. if you lived here youd know everyone was at his house lighting candles when he died, maybe not thos ppl on the sidewalk but the people of that same community so try not to judged from one youtube video unfortunate MOMENT in time.
dude...ur from UK..you have no idea what US black people are like...you know how many stereotypes there are for the british in the US???? you dont see me saying. "ya british people are all ugly buck toothed pansies who sit around drinkin tea talking about rugby and the queen in a gay little pub"..so dont talk about my city which is in a country 3000 fucking miles away from you were you have no idea what or how its like to live here or the moral nature of our people you fuckin douche bagg.
First of all i KNO you dont given your racist comments about black neighborhoods that you have no idea what its like, there are planty of people who give a shit, and YOUR PROFILE HAS A BRITISH FLAG so hey, i thought , the fucker just might be british DUHEE, ireland being the only other choice so i took a chance.."its cool not to give a shit in black neighborhoods" no black guy would say that... to be honest, i think only a white guy WOULD say that.
way off topic, im not even gunna reply to that, and do you have experience? considering you havent said you DO tells me you Dont....and who gives a shit about flag colors, and theres not one black guy here that ive met whod talk shit about his races communities or any other entire race for that matter.
There's no point in me saying 'I'm this and I'm that', because you have already made up your mind about me !
Just like you've made up your mind about why those chicken-shit bystanders just lingered around doing Jack Shit for that guy !
Also, finally if you read back a few posts there was one poster 'scan103' who made a very succinct statement about this sad event and all you could do was criticize him for his experienced, from the heart, opinion .
Yeah look on that tape, i hope this people who not helped him will feel the same someday that nobody helps them...
and in wich world we are living? in a mad world all people live for their own and give a f**ck on other peoples... there are 2 choices people decide to help each other and make a better world or the 2nd choice the world will get more mad and mad
what thats like saying,well...have you ever noticed how some teens in white neighborhoods are so starved for attention and the need to be cool they mimic the dumbest stunts ever showed on jackass?...hmmmm...i meanhow rediculousely stupid and pathetic can you get......all it proves is your a dumbshit eith no mind of ur own..but im not saying that degooser...that would be racist and stereotipycal...
Okay 'DaRemix89' what's YOUR explanation for the bystanders not giving a shit about the guy in the road ?
Please educate my dumbshit ass !
By the way I wouldn't say your statement about white kids was racist, and stereotypes are very often rooted in basic facts, so I agree with your assumption as a possible reason for many white teens behaviour.
read my reply right below yours....thats my explanation. they did all they could, i understand what it looks like but what do you expect everyone to start screaming and crowding around the guy like in movies? they seen it...were like oh shit wow, and called the boys...all that could be done......
again...you fucking idiot....WTF WOULD YOU HAVE DONE DIFFRENT?! NOTHING! ABSOLUTELY 0, oh MAYBE you would have ran up to the unconciouse guy WOW what a fucking diffrence that would make that wouldve saved his fucking life for sure...ya....THEY WERE IN SHOCK YOU DIP SHIT! it AINT that they didnt care its that THEY didnt know what they shud do! so fuck it they called the cops ya.. UR the fucking moron, talkin shit about people in a situation youve never been in urself so shut the fuck up
Unfortunately, a few posts on Youtube will never be enough to re-educate your sorry ass, I take your attitude and the reaction of bystanders in the video as the norm for your neighbourhood.
It shouldn't be 'God Bless America' more like 'God Help America, especially Hartford, Connecticut'
I make one slight change from my original post, it may not be a case of it being just "COOL not to give a fuck", it seems to me you don't know HOW to give a fuck, period !
wow, im sorry i cant be educated by a guy who judges my entire race and its neighborhoods, AND my fuckin country by one fucking youtube video of a bunch of people in shock after an accident, you fuckin moron.... more like God Help the UK for having 40 yr old faggs like you who should kno a few things by ur age who still think like fucking 16 yr olds..... wtf makes you such a saint anyway, a few criticisms about what other people do wrong? get over yourself dude...
It's pretty ironic, and it shows further YOUR level of ignorance and prejudice, that you accuse me of bigotry while you yourself freely use it towards me, by calling me a 'fagg' !!
I don't think these people are evil. It's called bystander apathy. Everyone thinks someone else will take charge in a situation like this. I personally would be so freaked out I'd be useless. I could never ever walk away, but I would probably just stand gobsmacked for a good few minutes. Or I'd call an ambulance, but I probably wouldn't be able to move. Human beings aren't super heroes.

How could he have died on May 11th if the hit and run occured on May 30th. Look at the date on the surveylance camera.

your dumb, he died the next year, idiot.

Listen, I think the only idiot here is you. Since you can't even prove a point without insulting people you don't even know. Shame on you!! Also, the person that I replied to didn't specify what year she was talking about. She could have said He died on May 11th of the following year and it would've made more sense for those of us who didn't follow that poor man's story. Get some education so that you can speak better sometimes.

i'd do it! you'd have to be pretty selfish not to go help him just cuz your pussy ass is scared of getting hit by another car, even though that getting hit by a car is a 1 in 3000 chance or some shit like that.

I would have helped if I was in the area at the time. I live in downtown at the rooms for rent on asylum st, above Tuesday's and Tapas. It's called Maison Martineault. But I walk trough there everyday to get my launch at Park St. I was I there at the time, I drag him out of the street and into the shade.

Yes 'askegg' a car can still hit you in the crosswalk true(you must be a scholar). But a crosswalk is a device we use that allows us to legally cross the street, and minimize risk of getting hit.
The first mistake I see in this video is a person wondering out in the middle of a busy street, called "jaywalking" and illegal in most places. Then I see two wreckless drivers one hits him and then leave the scene of a crime. Should the drivers be punished of course.

Um... the only question I have is what was the moron doing walking in the middle of the street? Use the cross-walk, the accident was his fault.

Yeah - it's not like a car can hit you on a cross-walk.

Les États Unis sont dépourvu de système de solidarité, il n'y a pas de social, pas d'aide, c'est marche ou crève. Même si il y a des cons partout, c'est leur société qui est comme ça donc forcement les gens ont une certaine mentalité. Le peuple américain se choque rarement, contrairement au peuple français qui manifeste et s'indigne beaucoup.

"Continued"-and ya maybe they didnt have the bleeding heart response to it but they arent careless, evil, world ruining people like your trying to make them out 2 be, that would be the fucking drivers. if you lived here youd know everyone was at his house lighting candles when he died, maybe not thos ppl on the sidewalk but the people of that same community so try not to judged from one youtube video unfortunate MOMENT in time.

dude...ur from UK..you have no idea what US black people are like...you know how many stereotypes there are for the british in the US???? you dont see me saying. "ya british people are all ugly buck toothed pansies who sit around drinkin tea talking about rugby and the queen in a gay little pub"..so dont talk about my city which is in a country 3000 fucking miles away from you were you have no idea what or how its like to live here or the moral nature of our people you fuckin douche bagg.
DaRemix89 3 years ago
You make so many presumptions about me and the world you must never have to leave your house !!
Yeah, I live in the UK, but why do you presume I'm British ?
Why do you presume I know nothing of what it's like to live in a black neighbourhood in the US ?
Also why do you presume I'm white ???
You are so narrow-minded I feel sorry for your neighbours !!
degooser2000 3 years ago
First of all i KNO you dont given your racist comments about black neighborhoods that you have no idea what its like, there are planty of people who give a shit, and YOUR PROFILE HAS A BRITISH FLAG so hey, i thought , the fucker just might be british DUHEE, ireland being the only other choice so i took a chance.."its cool not to give a shit in black neighborhoods" no black guy would say that... to be honest, i think only a white guy WOULD say that.
DaRemix89 3 years ago
Okay, you say I can't be black because I have criticised black neighbourhoods in the US. So your philosophy must be 'Put up, and Shut Up ?
Also, the Irish flag is nothing like the UK flag, it's a Tricolour, Green, White, Orange, DUH !
You're also taking a chance that I have no personal experience of what it's like in black neighbourhoods in the US ?
Okay we'll leave that at that .
degooser2000 3 years ago
way off topic, im not even gunna reply to that, and do you have experience? considering you havent said you DO tells me you Dont....and who gives a shit about flag colors, and theres not one black guy here that ive met whod talk shit about his races communities or any other entire race for that matter.
imeighteen898 3 years ago
Listen up moron !!
There's no point in me saying 'I'm this and I'm that', because you have already made up your mind about me !
Just like you've made up your mind about why those chicken-shit bystanders just lingered around doing Jack Shit for that guy !
Also, finally if you read back a few posts there was one poster 'scan103' who made a very succinct statement about this sad event and all you could do was criticize him for his experienced, from the heart, opinion .

DaRemix89 3 years ago
Okay 'DaRemix89' what's YOUR explanation for the bystanders not giving a shit about the guy in the road ?
Please educate my dumbshit ass !
By the way I wouldn't say your statement about white kids was racist, and stereotypes are very often rooted in basic facts, so I agree with your assumption as a possible reason for many white teens behaviour.
degooser2000 3 years ago
read my reply right below yours....thats my explanation. they did all they could, i understand what it looks like but what do you expect everyone to start screaming and crowding around the guy like in movies? they seen it...were like oh shit wow, and called the boys...all that could be done......
DaRemix89 3 years ago
Oh, I get it now !?!
The old dumbass shouldn't have walked into the road anyhow.
No one around knew him anyway.
The guy had already been hit and might have already been dead, so what could the bystanders do, hell they're not paramedics !!
They shouted to each other along the sidewalk that they'd "called the cops", so hell let 'da man' scrape this dipshits ass off the road !!
'DaRemix89,' you are a fucking moron !!
degooser2000 3 years ago
again...you fucking idiot....WTF WOULD YOU HAVE DONE DIFFRENT?! NOTHING! ABSOLUTELY 0, oh MAYBE you would have ran up to the unconciouse guy WOW what a fucking diffrence that would make that wouldve saved his fucking life for sure...ya....THEY WERE IN SHOCK YOU DIP SHIT! it AINT that they didnt care its that THEY didnt know what they shud do! so fuck it they called the cops ya.. UR the fucking moron, talkin shit about people in a situation youve never been in urself so shut the fuck up

The natural human emotion of 'caring' is totally missing from you isn't it ?

degooser2000 3 years ago
Unfortunately, a few posts on Youtube will never be enough to re-educate your sorry ass, I take your attitude and the reaction of bystanders in the video as the norm for your neighbourhood.
It shouldn't be 'God Bless America' more like 'God Help America, especially Hartford, Connecticut'
I make one slight change from my original post, it may not be a case of it being just "COOL not to give a fuck", it seems to me you don't know HOW to give a fuck, period !
Good Luck, you're gonna need it !
degooser2000 3 years ago
wow, im sorry i cant be educated by a guy who judges my entire race and its neighborhoods, AND my fuckin country by one fucking youtube video of a bunch of people in shock after an accident, you fuckin moron.... more like God Help the UK for having 40 yr old faggs like you who should kno a few things by ur age who still think like fucking 16 yr olds..... wtf makes you such a saint anyway, a few criticisms about what other people do wrong? get over yourself dude...
