Video: The lonely reaction of a woman before a brutal break-in – 11/07/2018

The video exposes a problem that goes hand in hand with insecurity: indifference . The images show the nil reaction of a group of people facing a violent robbery. Only one woman runs to help the victim, who was dragged on the ground by the thief. The attacker managed to escape and was arrested in the last hours. He's 16.

The episode occurred last week in the city of Bernal, in Buenos Aires, in the Quilmes district. The video was viralized by social networks and provoked controversy: not only because of the brutality of the thief but also because of the attitude of the people who watched the scene and decided not to intervene .

After a few seconds, and when the victim was dragged along the sidewalk, a woman runs to try to help her. A pickup truck pbading near the place also notices what was happening and tries to lock the thief who eventually runs away.

On Wednesday, the Buenos Aires police arrested a suspect, identified as "Carita". Case sources reported that was 16 years old and had several records in the area . They caught him in a house in Bernal, where they also found the bike that he would have used during the flight.
