Robert is walking down Forbes Avenue when he observes two men physically attacking a young girl. He is not related in any manner to the girl, who he does not know or recognize. As far as he can determine, the two men are attacking her without provocation or justification, and are seriously injuring her. In Robertâs pocket is an operable cell phone with which he can place a totally free call to â911â to attempt to help the attacked girl. Robert can make the call in complete safety, and does not fear that the men will discover his actions. Instead of helping the young girl, Robert simply decides to watch the attack.
