www.dailymail.co.uk On Saturday afternoon, a man with his wife and children, out to do Christmas shopping, drove by a bush close to the UK city centre of Manchester. He noticed what looked like a person lying behind a bush. In the busy area, many people were walking by. His first thought someone was drunk, or that it was a homeless person so they drove on. Although it might have been a prank, it played on his mind so they turned the car around and stopped to take a proper look.
That's when he made the harrowing discovery of a stiff body with bruising on the side of his face.
He panicked and called the paramedics, who said the man might have been attacked. A large police presence remained at the scene on Saturday evening, with a cordon surrounding a piece of grassed land.
Detectives and will contacted him in a few days to allow him time to recover from the ordeal. Meanwhile, officers are trying to establish the identity and are in the early stages of investigating the death.

There must be a reason so many people walked right by the body and never noticed. Perhaps they were busy, or their mind was elsewhere. Maybe they just didn't care about somebody lying under a bush. But what if they could have saved the man's life earlier?
Ir reminds me of the Good Samaritan parable.
There is a possibility of harm to the passer-by. Perhaps it was a trap. You'd need to make the decision to help a stranger despite that, and ensure your own safety too.
What would you do if you saw someone lying in disarray?
