  • The people just watching him lay there should be arrested.

  • RIP

    ass hole

  • Disgusting that everyone just carried on as normal. What a sad world we live in.

  • They are called Liberal sheep.

  • ok heres something to think about, if you get across the street quickly in a straight line instead of dragging your feet (like this guy) casually making your way across the street as if your god and the seas of cars should be parted for you and in no specific direction you could cross alot quicker and less things like this would happen geez, i gueess theres no money in the connecticut budget for road crossing techniques to be taught in schools

  • i love it even more when people cross a side street and dont even look, depending on the people driving to spot them being the ignoramouses they are! better yet on a cell phone unloading children from their car with the door open in the street, those people are realll smart

  • Comment removed

  • I HATE SUCH PEOPLE WHO ARE SUCH ASS HOLES ..IF SOMONE IS NEEDED HELP WHY THE FUCK THEY COULDNT GO AND SEE HIM..these white asses are not even of their parents...bluddy fuckers...it never happens in india if somone is hit so many comes to help there...

  • yea brother , India maybe not be developed as America but we got heart ,bro.

  • I guess there were no Christians around.

  • the accident was ok, it was that no-one helped the guy that made me sick, makes you almost lose faith in humanity, i nedd to go watch some have-a-go-hero clips to pick me up

  • Thats you use cross walks!!!

  • Based on the shadows, there was a big SUNGLARE, meaning that the cars travelling upward had sun in their eyes. The car that first appears, looks like it is slowing down to let the pedestrian cross. The car behind it, reacts too late, and has to swerve into oncoming lane. The car after that, that actually hits the pedestrian, also reacts late due to the sun glare, but his trajectory takes him right into the pedestrian. After that, all hell breaks loose and everybody flees....

  • Absolutely disgusting. PEOPLE WERE JUST WALKING BY, CARS WERE PASSING WHILE A MAN WHO WAS JUST HIT BY AN INSANE DRIVER LYE IN THE STREET: DYING. EVEN IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MAN, STOP AND FUCKING HELP HIM! JESUS, THE COP WHO ARRIVED WASN'T EVEN RESPONDING TO THIS! WHY? BECAUSE NO ONE CALLED!!! HE WAS GOING TO SOME OTHER "MORE IMPORTANT" PLACE. These people nowadays, completely inconsiderate and oblivious to what's happening to others around them... simply revolting.

  • the question is why this two cars was driving on the wrong side of the street? there is no visible traffic why they need to cross the line and the run the poor man over?

  • Why the FUCK does it take that long for ANYBODY to go and help that poor guy????? FUCK YOU AMERICANS!!!! IF I EVER COME ACROSS YOU AND YOU NEED DESPERATE HELP SHORTLY BEFORE YOU DIE, I WILL PROUDLY SPIT ON YOUR FACE!!!

  • why was he j waling lol

  • So you are just like them? Nice way to lower yourself to their level...

  • I will do it once only. And remind them of this video.

  • Then you ARE just like them... They have probably seen people requiring help before while everyone just stood by and they thought to themselves:

    "IF I EVER COME ACROSS YOU AND YOU NEED DESPERATE HELP SHORTLY BEFORE YOU DIE, I WILL PROUDLY SPIT ON YOUR FACE!"

    And now you have no one helping anyone... You have admitted to everyone that you wouldn't help them if you saw them in need - so you would be one of those people just sitting around watching - you are just like them.

  • you stupid fool. i said i would do it ONE TIME ONLY to show them how it is like. They wouldnt like it at all and think: hey i better start helping other people.

  • So, let me get this straight - you would keep a database of all the people in this clip and let each one suffer when they needed help so that they would learn to help others? LOL Who is the fool? You are propagating the negative cycle.

    Maybe you should just lead by example? Help whenever needed (regardless of who it is) to show others the way we should be acting towards each other? Feed a positive cycle? Your mentality is the same as theirs and you are just like them.

  • man that was just inhuman,just driving past like there was just thrash laying on the road...american people should be ashamed now that the fuckin world has seen this...

  • fukn niggers... and you know it was in this shit hole town!

  • fuck that liberal thats what happens when you are stupid

  • May all those zombies standing around die in the same manner...

  • how many people just walked by or continued driving, you people should be ashamed of yourselves!!!

  • Disgusting. I live in CT, and I remember seeing this on the news. Hasn't anyone heard of the critical minutes? He could have been spared some of his now-permanent suffering, just by receiving immediate attention. The city where I live had a campaign on helping others because of this.

  • Hartford is a shithole, no one goes there after 9pm

  • Yes... but this is America. Help him and then get sued by the guy's lawyer for not helping him properly and probably arrested for assaulting him :)

    Unless you are a trained first aider, then call the professionals and clear the area.

  • Shit, i heard that really happens in US - suing for first aid. What a shame.

  • omg! why didn't the guy who was at the white car go over to help the victim?!! He just walked by without a care...he didn't even look at him! That's why I hate people who have the mentality: "Oh dear...I'm sure someone else will help..I'll let them do it!"

  • Because it is "Hartford" With the Hartford "not my problem" attitude. Don't need assistance of anykind there YOU WON'T GET IT!!!!!

  • Why didn't anyone help him? Is this what it's really like in USA?

  • yes dont come here the US fucking sucks.

  • the only good thing about the U.S. is disneyland, but japan has one so fuck this place

  • what the fuck is wrong with people? i dont agree with the comments saying this is only an American problem - this happens everywhere. Only last year a woman got raped and beaten up over here and was just left in the street - cars were going round her! these people should be ashamed of themselves.

  • okay, this is why you shoudn't j-walk

  • he wasn't hit because he was jaywalking, watch it again, he was NOT in the incoming lane, he was nOT in the travellane, there were two cars passing and completely in the opposite lane when theyhit him. Watch as the two then take a right to hide most likely

  • maybe he wasn't hit Only because he was jaywalking, the shit head drive was also the cause, but the fucking retard should wait until he got to a crosswalk, sure i feel sorry for him, but he is a dipshit

  • HA HA HA AMERICANS ARE STUPID

  • wow wat is he doing in the middle ofthe street like that in the first place

  • US Citizens are becoming less humane every single day.

  • the technologi we got now would of got the number plates and would of tracked them down, and i think it wasnt done of purpose, they were trying to overtake a car and the 2nd car didnt see the guy, he even tryed to swerve away but then just drove off.

  • look at all the people going by and not helping dang thats cold

  • yeah ffs someone step out and stop the traffic at least

  • there is street corner to cross the street good for him

  • Oh, shit.. Why didn't the stupid drivers have enough logic to  stop and help assist this critically injured man who was lying on the street the entire time! What is it... a side show or something? This is absolutely disgusting! This is so sickening enough to make me want to cry hysterically. I hope the witness have enough sense to help the police arrest the drivers and to charge them with manslaughter!

  • it wasn't just an accident. it seems like those two cars were escaping,the police maybe?

  • what the fuck noone sees him in the road or somthing and when they do they just go up to him and act like its a bug or somthing

  • watch?v=3KkHF-ypla4

    See this video for more information and comment it.

  • wow, what a bunch of slugs. Is that a bad neighborhood or something?

  • wow i cant believe it. was this the hit and run that occured on park st?

  • This reminds me of a dying animal lying in the road. Like other non-humans - haven't a clue as to what's going on (or don't give a shit)

    Shocking

  • The sluggish response by the public is more shocking than the accident itself. People just continued there business like it was perfectly normal. If the man wasn't lying in the street and was in nobody's way, would they have even bothered? Would you have bothered?

  • well thats hartford for ya people dont give a shit about others there you cant even go there at 5 o clock unless u want to get in an accident or get flipped the bird 50 times u can flame me all u want but if u live in hartford u already know how bad it is people are fucked up there

  • omg, is everyone just going to fucking stand there and fucking look at him, or is someone going to fucking do something!

  • I've been in situations in Hartford where people acted like heroes. So keep it real. What should the other drivers do, sit around and look and cause a traffic jam. That's not how we do it in the CUT, it ain't the south. Those bastards in the cars were most likley teens, driving like fools, you see that kind of thing all the time in Hartford. In that nieghborhood you have to take people in your own car to the emergency room (I know we had to take our cousin, he ended up in a coma).

  • OH SHIT! A TRAFFIC JAM! you mug, thats a 78 year old man lying in the road. "it ain't the south" it aint fucking human. your an animal.

  • No bitch, I'm not an animal, I'm from hartford. Standing around saying "oh my god" does what? Call 911, help the guy or keep it moving. I've seen real heroes in Hartford and have helped real people but cat's like you just freak out and get emotional, stand around looking saying "somebody do something." I'm the somebody that gets it done, then I continue like it never happened! It doesn't matter to me if he's 78 or 28, white or black. I've seen it before an I'll see it again.

  • no one helped !!!

    how could they take pictures with theirs cellphones and not help...

    anyone stopped there to help that guy...

  • Hit and run, yeah sure, this is obviously intentional. The two similar cars are traveling at the same speed. They both crossed a double line. I could understand one moron crossing a double line, but not two similar cars driving the same road at the same time, and they "accidentally" each hit the man and then drive off in the same direction, still driving at the same speed. Obviously Mr. Torres ticked off somebody, and or possibly he crossed that road several times before and this was planned

  • No actually the only information given was that it was an illegal road race. They're not extremely common in Hartford but neither is a person with more than half a brain. I'm happy I don't live there anymore.

  • the police need to zoom in the video and see the SUV thats stopped in the right side. the person in this SUV saw the impact and the 2 cars, maybe he can help. angel did right , he walked the street and theres no car in his side but the 2 cars came from the other side and passed the 2 yellow lines .. there are 2 fugitives!!!!!!

  • look at the suv placement closer the vehicle was forward of the incident. But if a child were in the back they would have seen everything. Why was the SUV driving so slow? Possibly because that way he created a barricade so that Mr. Torres could not run out of the way. The SUV moves to the side of the road in a very fluid motion that looks planned. So it gets to the side of the road makes a 911 call. If the SUV never pulled to the side you would easily know its the 3rd fugitive. 3!!!

  • welcome to america, where we don't fucking care. we would watch you die on tv if we could.

  • Anyone notice the Police Car that did show up in 65 seconds??? a few copies of this video stop at 1:25 where the police arrive. So someone had to call 911....

  • the press release from hartford p.d. says that the police car was on its way to another call when it came across mr. torres.

  • from the press release: On Friday, May 30, 2008, at approximately 5:45 p.m. Hartford Police were responding to an unrelated call for service when one of the responding officers came upon a pedestrian lying in the road in front of 33 Park Street.

  • Compassion, caring and admitting to our weaknesses and mortality are not part of the american mindset. We look down on weakness and in fact, have no real emotional skills in dealing with death/injury right before our eyes. Thus, the "every man for himself" rules in most of america. Its an accurate stretch to say that this same selfish attitude (glorified as self-reliance, independence) is what keeps one of richest countries in the world to leave 40 million americans without healthcare.

  • At least people called emergency.

    BUT Nobody tried to save him from the critical position, or to stop traffic, to avoid a final accident (luck, it did not happen).

    Several car drivers passed by (there was even parking space).

    All car drivers passing by, and all bystanders not trying to safe the guy from the still dangerous situation should loose their license. The two "racers" who hit the man schould go to jail for a long time.

  • Yeah that's right the media are to blame for running over that man

  • The sad thing is how the media report about it. In fact four emergency calls were made within one minute!

    And yes, it's an old truth that humans don't "function" very well in emergencies like this one: Not realizing it really happened, feeling shocked (watch the person turning away in distress), not knowing what to do (and not wanting to make things worse), seeing others not act either, etc. But everyone else is ready to condemn them.

    Look up psych. research on the Kitty Genovese case.

  • Absolutely. The MEDIA are to blame here. The more scandalous the better. Starting with CT TV channel #3 WFSB that first aired the story.

    Just give an honest LOOK at the real-time tape. Within one minute of contact a police car with a trained professional was at the scene!

    Within moments of the cars leaving the scene, I see the injured getting attention of passersby who realize this was not a prank or publicity stunk, but was a real-life hit and run contact.

  • Thanks for the tip, interesting

  • ja warum sollte auch eine von den hundert votzen, die vorbeifahren, bewusstumdrehen etc helfen... ich würde jeden davon an die wand stellen wegen unterlassener hilfeleistung!!

  • CowboyBob84, not so sad. Its just very American.

  • I think its the same in USA though.

  • This is really sad. I guess, that most of the people who didnt help feel frightened of making a mistake and are to shy to do something. You see, when the firts man goes closer to the victim, the others follow. Being unsure what to do shouldnt prtend you from calling the 911 or whatever is the right number for that in US. This is embarassing, but much more people arround the world would have done the same... nothing. Theres a reason why you can get punished for not helping in germany.

  • yeah i guess they are somehow frightened

    but shouldnt it be human to help someone in that condition?

  • Perhaps, they were afraid for their own safety and did not want to go in street then be hit by car themselves. That is a real FEAR.

  • This is what happens when you let the poor propagate beyond their means... Right libs!

  • If you'd lived in Connecticut, you'd not be surprised. Snottiest people(rivaling people from Massachussetts, also known as Massholes). If ask a local for directions in Connecticut they are likely to tell you the opposite way. This is considered amusing to Connecticut people (to the only person relevant - themselves)

  • victims of creeping socialism.."not my problem, someone else will fix it"

  • I can't believe how people acted like they didn't even see him. I would have gone into the street to see if I could help him and to stop anyone from possibly running over him. When I see this video, I think of how much influence Satan really has over people.

  • Americam, Idiots

  • why wouldnt anybody stop?! what the fuck??

  • omg
