You can be sure that man is more American than Arab. There are wicked selfish people everywhere regardless of their nationality or religion.
Because his name sounds Arabic, or Nigerian doesn't mean the news shouldn't be reported. News of reckless people with English sounding names are also reported. They didn't lie on him, or frame his response at the scene.
Everyone who lives there knows it's a crime to flee the scene of an accident.



Maybe stop the taxi, and ask the taxi to call 911 emergency number.
Not a matter of the news being reported... but how it is reported. Eg...the biggest mass shooting in American history by a gunman ...if his name was Saheed Amed.... do you really believe the media would've labeled him the shooter?...and not label him as a terrorist?...and do you really believe the media would be virtually silent on that today? Again...how it is reported and what is implied. On calling 911...you have concluded he never did... nor asked anyone to. Maybe he didn't. ... and under such circumstances when fear and panic step in one generally does not think straight....and I'm talking from experience.

Take a minute to look at the burning wreckage and tell me how exactly he was meant to pull her out of there. He probably escaped with his own life by a hair's breadth.
She was already a lost cause...... Anyone so much as goes near that car is suicidal or at best wake up in the ICU 4weeks later with 3rd degree burns.
Unless they had a suicide pact, leaving her in there was the best course of action.

When an accident happen here, you are not expected to leave the scene but wait for the arrival of a police and an ambulance. He should have requested that the taxi driver help him call 911, and never leave the scene. For the fact that he was on his feet and was able to walk up to a taxi suggest his injury was non-life threatening.

He was probably running away from something or he was not in the right frame of mind. Though he may have an arguement that the sight of his girl friend burning in the car was too much for him to stay and watch. With the sight of that flame he couldn't have done much.

A lot of people passed that car without helping. Even the person filming or taking pictures. No one there had offered to help him before he hailed a taxi.



We know the drill, autopsy to determine cause of depth. Conduct enquiry into cause of accident or fire. Then we'll know what's what.

He may even have momentarily lost his bearing after the shock of the accident.

People have accident, wakeup to find they are actually still alive, run like mad, fall down and then die immediately after!
What about that? It is called TRAUMA
Was it also criminal negligent?

Just because he could not do anything to save the woman (not his job though because he is not a ParaMedic, l dont think if we reverse the case, any woman will enter a burning car that may explod anytime, to save their boyfriend), doesnot mean he killed her or wanted her to die.
He could have been dead himself.

We should stop holding men to any exagerated level of expectation (just because they are Males) while preaching EQUALITY of Gender and not holding women to the same yardstick

Explorers:
This is the moment a New York man was caught on camera hailing a taxi to leave the scene of a car crash while his trapped female friend burned to death nearby.


The footage shows Saeed Ahmed asking a taxi driver in the middle of a highway if he can get a ride just moments after crashing his car on in Brooklyn on Friday night.


The video, which was shot by a witness and obtained by ABC7, shows his car engulfed in flames in the background.


His passenger, Harleen Grewel, 25, was pronounced dead at the scene after her charred body was found in the front passenger seat by firefighters at the scene.



Ahmad was allegedly weaving in and out of traffic on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway before his 2007 Infiniti G35 hit a barrier.



He is said to have escaped the burning wreckage before flagging down the taxi to take him to hospital, leaving Grewel behind in the burning car.



Saeed was later arrested at a hospital where he was being treated for burns to his arms and legs following the crash.


Ahmad's father has since said he doesn't know what his son was thinking fleeing the scene of the horror crash.


'I don't know what happened yet, I need to see him, talk to him, find out what happened,' Mohammad Azam told the New York Daily News.





He was charged with criminally negligent homicide, leaving the scene of an accident, aggravated unlicensed operation of a vehicle and over speeding.

What was he supposed to do?...run back into the flames?.... call 911?...did he have his phone? He was,also burnt and needed urgent medical attention. If his name were not Saeed Ahmed... the accident would've taken a different tone ..... the witnesses and ones video taping would've been the villains. What's the subconscious message sent out?....these Muslim people are all heartless.... this man just ran away and left his companion to burn to death ... never lifted a finger to help her ... as if he could have. We swallowed that message and ran with it. That's how we get brainwashed and don't even know....that's how we are trained to hate others and don't even know.
Is he innocent?..no. Should he be charged? Yes....I think manslaughter...and depraved indifference being the main two. Depraved Indifference because he was driving recklessly. ... not for leaving his friend in the car.

If we take and make our assumptions from what was reported ONLY, there is no indication in that report, that he was pseeding, speeding recklessly or was even the cause of the accident. So, dont apportion blame without evidence.
All it said was that he left the scene of the accident.

Now, he could be in a trance or trauma when he escaped the wreckage and needed urgent medical attention thus the need to reach a hospital immediately, since he would not have remembered to pick up his phone from the burning vehicle (that eliminates his ability to call 911).

He is not trained to fight fire and not a Paramedic - That eliminates his ability or responsibility to act like iron man (irrespective of whether it was his mother or girl friend that was in the burning car. Many people have drowned, trying to save a drowning person, with the "Hero-Thought" on their mind. grin ). That nullifies the criminal negligence charge

'Leaving the scene of an accident' presumes that you are alright, uninjured, rational and cognitive, so you are responsible for your thoughts and action. But a person who just survived a near-death accident, in non of the above, in terms of state of mind.
he was just in a survival mode, which is normal and automaic for all humans. That charge is also trashed.

Since it cannot be proved that he caused the accident and he was also "involved in the accident", manslaughter charges will not hold water.
To prove manslaughter, you need to show that he UNINTENTIONALLY caused the accident or killed the person.
Scenario could be: CAr was driving at 50km/h, engine caught fire and brakes failed to hold (brake fluid hose burnt and leaking), car crashed and he lost consiciousness but regained it momentarily in time to escape the fire though he still got burns on him. Prove me wrong on that. undecided


I am sure l am not even half as smart as his Lawyer, the guy would walk free.
Law is not about emotions but about what facts you can prove/disprove in court, based on what the law says.
