So I went into Price Chopper on Rt. 9 in Shrewsbury this morning. Outside was the normal Salvation Army bell ringer. I do my shopping, about 20 minutes worth. As I'm coming out the store exit, I start walking down the alcove to towards the parking lot exit. I notice the bell the Salvation Army guy was ringing was on the ground, near the door. I look out and he's on the ground having a seizure. 2, not 1 but 2, people walked right by him, looked and walked in like nothing was wrong. I get over to the guy and start evaluating (I'm an EMT as well as police officer). He's starting to come around and FINALLY someone asks, "Should we call someone?" No...let's just sit here and see how long it takes him to die! I then call the local PD on my cell and get an ambulance started.
Finally, the manager comes out. "Is there something wrong?" No...I like talking to people only when they're lying on the ground having seizures...you want to talk?
I cannot believe that 2 people just walked by like nothing was going on. People just don't give a damn anymore!
