"PHILADELPHIA (WTXF) An alarming video of a woman being beaten on a city street while a crowd of people watches came to us by a Fresco News user.
..."The guy was actually on top of the girl-- just beating on her," the witness told FOX 29.
The woman is on the ground and you can see the man repeatedly slapping and punching the victim.
"I did hear a commotion earlier.
I didn't pay no mind and then I came out and the guy was on top of the girl," the witness explained.
The witness who shot the video says the beating went on for some time. He says maybe 20 to 30 minutes.
"Did anyone try to help the woman?," FOX 29 asked,
"No one, just bystanders, smiling laughing. Just standing around like a normal day, like nothing was even happening," the witness said.
You can see from the video that no one tries to intervene or help the woman.
People are on their cell phones and just watching her being beaten.
We don't know if they were possibly afraid for their own safety.
We do know someone on the block did call police.
"I didn't want to jump in and be a hero and just get hurt you know. It's bad out here," the man said..."
