Always call 911 when you see someone collapsed in the middle of the sidewalk.

Chicago Tribune reports: "Homeless man Hugo Alfredo Tale-Yax, 31, a Guatemalan immigrant, collapsed on a New York street after being stabbed by a knife-wielding attacker. Tale-Yax had reportedly protected a woman from an attack, and was stabbed several time in the chest. Dozens walked by the dying man on the sidewalk."  According to the New York Post this happened on 144th Street in Jamaica, Queens.
