Man robbed at Small Street Mall while people watched
A man was robbed in broad daylight - and no one tried to help.
It used to be that robbers targeted you when you were walking in the dark alone. Those days are gone! Robbers are shameless now, and they will come for you in public.
A video has surfaced on social media and it's making us wonder how safe we are around each other?
With the kind of society we're building with high walls and electric fences, we've become so incredibly uncaring that we can now watch and film someone's suffering instead of lending a helping hand.
