Hugo Alfredo Tale-Yax was stabbed several times in the chest while saving a woman from a knife-wielding attacker. Then he bled to death while dozens of people walked by -- one stopping to snap a picture of the dying man with his cameraphone before leaving the scene.

Tale-Yax, 31, a homeless Guatemalan immigrant, collapsed at 144th Street and 88th Road in Jamaica, Queens, while in pursuit of the woman's attacker around 5:40 a.m. on April 18. He was pronounced dead by medical workers who responded to a 911 call around 7:20 a.m. But surveillance video obtained the New York Post, which the New York Times got the NYPD to confirm is genuine, shows that plenty of people saw Tale-Yax lying there in his death throes and did nothing.
I would probably just keep walking like the other people. I mean he could have been passed out drunk for all anyone knows and homeless people tend to have transmittable diseases. So yeah I would just keep walking by.

What would you do?

If I saw a pool of blood, I'd call 911. I don't know if he passed out then died or was conscious till death, if he was kicking around or something. If the latter then I also woulda called 911.

Honestly if he was just lying down and there wasn't anything suggesting he was not just passed out or asleep, I probably would have walked by. Having seen so many homeless in DC, you kinda stop REALLY noticing them unless they're doing something out of the ordinary.

I dunno if it looked like he was just a passed out homeless person I'd walk by but if there was blood everywhere and it was obvious he'd been stabbed I'd at least call 911.  Though in my area there's a lot of police so it wouldn't be hard to flag one down.

Thank you for reminding me why I was so anxious waiting for the train on the Jamaica LIRR station.

I saw this the other day. If I saw the pool of blood, I'd help him... but I really don't think any of the people who walked past him saw it.

In which case, tbh, I'd probably leave him be myself.

Next question: What would you do if your son was at home, crying all alone on the bedroom floor 'cause he’s hungry and the only way to feed him is to sleep wit a man for a little bit of money?

Jamaica is pure ghetto. Ghetto people don't like cops. They especially don't like calling the cops and bringing attention to themselves, especially if it involves ratting out one of their own.
