This homeless man showed more courage and compassion for someone else than everyone on the street that night. A man with nothing ended up having more than the others can ever imagine. He knew what it was like to care about a stranger and be willing to sacrifice his life to save someone else.
May God have mercy on the people walking by him as his life slipped away when they could have saved him.
Multiple Pedestrians Ignore Dying New York Hero
(April 24) -- A homeless man who was stabbed while saving a woman from a knife-wielding attacker lay dying in a pool of his own blood for more than an hour while several New Yorkers walked past without calling for help.
Surveillance video obtained by the New York Post shows that some passers-by paused to gawk at Hugo Alfredo Tale-Yax early Sunday morning and yet kept on walking.
One man came out of a nearby building and took a cellphone photo of the victim before leaving. Another leaned over and vigorously shook the dead man before walking away. But most people never stopped.
Firefighters arrived more than an hour and 20 minutes after Tale-Yax collapsed. By that time, the 31-year-old was dead.
"They needed to help and call the police. I don't get it," resident Ramon Bellasco, 46, told the Post.

ReplyDelete"As for the woman who he tried to save speak up" This is a great point. She should.
ReplyDeleteWe can understand her running away but she needs to step up for the man responsible for her being able to run away.
