This is one of those shocking pieces of video which makes you wonder about the fate of civilization. 78-year-old Angel Arce Torres was crossing a Hartford, Connecticut street on May 30th when a passing car hit him and then sped away from the scene. That's not really the shocking part; things like that happen every day. The shocking (and sad) part is the reaction from passers-by: Nothing. Oh sure, moped guy circles the man in the street, and someone probably calls 911 'cause the cops show eventually, but still. Torres is in critical condition in a Hartford Hospital and the police are hunting for the scumbag hit-and-runners. [NewYorkPost]
