Recently a friend’s son (~21yo) stopped in a parking lot to help a woman in distress. Details are still coming in but as far as I know at this point he stopped to help the women who’s car that had “broken” down shortly after exiting his car he was jumped by 2 men beaten almost to death and robbed. I believe there was even a baby’s car seat in the back seat to add to this preset ambush. He was beaten to the point he was unrecognizable to friends and family. I have tried to relay this story to friends and family, it’s sad our society has come to this point. Possibly the fact that many peoples unemployment check have reached the end of their extensions plays a role in this type of attack..

I hope this is the correct area to post this. I really don’t know how I would handle the same situation. Stay in the truck and offer to call the police for the women? Get out and carefully watch your surroundings? I realize a lot of other factors come into play, time of day/night, location etc… I hate to think the safest thing to do now days is simply drive by..
