Unarmed, who tries to restrain a thug with a knife, after seeing him stab someone? The stabbing is shocking, not what the witnesses did not do.

Multiple witnesses can handle one man with a knife. I have a friend who took down a hostage taker who had a crossbow as police waited for a negotiator to show.

Sadly, if a witness(es) intervenes and stops/subdues the perp, he/she is rewarded a week or two later with a lawsuit from the perp.

Sadly, that is what this country has come to.

Hope the victim recovers fully.
