91 Year Old Man Beaten and Carjacked

[The Captain]

Part 1- StoryPart 2- Suspect arrestedPart 3- Message to bystandersInvalid Video LinkTo sum it up-- 91 year old WWII vet punched 23 times in head- Suspect grabs his car and takes off- Bystanders watch and do nothing- Man survives, suspect caught, could face life in jail.This happened about 15 minutes from me. I'm going to send him a card later. Very sad to hear.

wow coolultimate JK. no one should laugh at thatwhat I don't understand is why the guy had to go so far in beating him up. Not like he was in army shape at the time.EDIT: And it's pretty common that bystanders do nothing. I got punched in the face about last year, and no one did anything (I was 100% innocent)

I don't get why so many people have been convinced as such.EDIT: I don't mean to sound soulless, it's just my pet peeve when people say "what's wrong with people these days" and there seem to be a lot of threads on this forum started for the purpose of that.

I'm kinda down with the Pestilence on this one. Predators don't pray. We all know that.At this other site I post at there's alot of hand-wringing about the bystanders. I don't think I could have stood and watched it. Maybe I'm a heroic bystander.
