Why is there no mention of the off duty N.A. firefighter who stopped to assist this poor man? As it is, this firefighter is a member of the family of a close friend of the man who was hit. What a small world. Turns out he had some serious ,life threatening injuries and could very well have died were it not for the firefighter and the other motorist that assisted the man. Here, here to these people who stopped to assist. More people should take notice. "No good deed goes undone."
