On May 30, Angel Arce Torres, 78, from Hartford, Connecticut was run over by a car travelling on the wrong side of the road. Moreover, the car didn’t stop to see what happened with the victim and, what’s even more unbelievable, was the fact that nine cars drove by the man without stopping.

The whole scene was captured by a streetlight surveillance camera. The images were shocking.

Now, doctors said that the victim would not be able to breath on his own. He would have to use a respirator for the rest of his life, reported the Associated Press.

Torres, who is at Hartford Hospital, was paralyzed from the neck down in the hit-and-run accident that shocked the whole world.

Torres’ son, Angel Arce said that his father’s lung collapsed.

The video showed how Torres was trying to cross the street, after he had bought some milk. A Honda travelling on the wrong side of the street hit the man and continued its route.

According to Times Online, motorists skillfully passed the victim, not bothering to stop and take the victim to a hospital.

Hartford Police Chief Daryl Roberts made the video public, hoping that people would offer information about the person responsible for the accident.
