Cell Phone Camera Captures Knife Attack

KWTX reports that the Las Vegas-area police released dramatic cell phone video Thursday of a knife attack at a Nevada supermarket that left four people wounded, shot by a witness with his cameraphone.

"A woman's screams can be heard amid grainy images of a man lunging at a security guard during the Tuesday attack at a Food 4 Less store. The guard and two clerks then chase and subdue the man in a checkout lane."

The video goes on and on forever, I hope the newscaster reporting this story on TV, brought up how reprehensible it is someone would film this, instead of using his phone to call the police for help. Where I live this is called "non assistance de personnes en danger"(non assitance of persons in danger) and it's punishable by law.
