(VIDEO)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p><strong><em>An elderly man, M. S. (78), was beaten on King Alexander Boulevard when a car driver, S. V. (36), attacked him. The horrific scene was captured on camera, and the video also shows a young woman rushing to help the attacked grandfather, trying to protect him from the attacker. The woman is a student named Dora \u0160por\u010di\u0107, who told Nova.rs that she never hesitated to protect the man, even for a moment.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The footage of the attack on the elderly man on King Alexander Boulevard circulated on social networks and caused a wave of negative comments. It shows the driver, who was later arrested, getting out of his vehicle and attacking the older man who was standing on the roadway and appeared to be disoriented. At one point, he knocks him to the ground and continues to hit him, and a girl runs to the aid of the attacked man, pushing the attacker away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was precisely this brave and noble act of the young woman that caught the public&#8217;s attention. The portal and newspaper Nova managed to find her. She is a student named Dora \u0160por\u010di\u0107 who, as she told us, was going to the faculty at the time of the attack and initially thought that a collision had occurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">FIND OUT MORE:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\t<figure class='wp-block-newspack-blocks-iframe'>\n\t\t<div class='wp-block-embed__wrapper' style=\"height:600px; width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t<iframe\n\t\t\t\tid = 'newspack-iframe-ypO7xMYl1LR9'\n\t\t\t\tlayout = 'responsive'\n\t\t\t\theight = '100'\n\t\t\t\twidth = '100'\n\t\t\t\tsrc = 'https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fserbiantimes%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0GF4eLrG1QGGEuqFmi8hQBp61DDRHh78QbhEhdyj41BXj1SB1zQvBCbiyYYmNX7aQl'\n\t\t\t\tstyle = 'height: 600px; width: 100%;'\n\t\t\t\tframeborder = '0'\n\t\t\t\tallowfullscreen\n\t\t\t><\/iframe>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/figure>\n\n\t<script>\n\t\tconst iframe = document.getElementById(\"newspack-iframe-ypO7xMYl1LR9\");\n\t\tconst timerId = setInterval( function() {\n\t\t\t\tiframe.src = iframe.src;\n\t\t\t}, 2000 );\n\n\t\tiframe.onload = function() {\n\t\t\tclearInterval(timerId);\n\t\t}\n\n\t<\/script>\n\n\t\n\n\n<p>&#8220;That man got out of the car, and I saw him charge and slap the grandfather. At that moment, I didn&#8217;t hesitate at all &#8211; on the one hand, there was a man who could barely walk; he was visibly disoriented, and on the other, there was this one who was slapping him and pushing him to the ground. He was hitting him even when he was on the ground, and I ran towards them because, when everything happened, I was standing a little further away. I jumped over the grandfather and pushed that man away; I told him: &#8216;What are you doing? Are you crazy? How dare you do that? You see that the man is older and can barely walk?'&#8221; this brave girl recounts the dramatic moments for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She points out that two other guys ran up and lifted the beaten man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I asked him if he was okay, and he said he was. I saw that he had a bruise near his eye and was scratched. I asked him if he hit his head, and he said he had hit the concrete. What scared me the most was that the attacker, after we moved the grandfather, continued to circle him and try to get through to him. We chased him to hold him back, but he couldn&#8217;t control himself. When he came to his senses a bit, he still didn&#8217;t understand that he was wrong or reacted rashly,&#8221; the student tells us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dora says that the attacker kept yelling that he could have killed him, that the older man was not normal, and that he deserved to be beaten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I just told him: &#8216;You didn&#8217;t kill him with the car, so are you going to come out and kill him with beatings now?&#8217; We argued, he was vulgar and very rude. It was just luck that there was a police patrol across the street. A policeman came out, moved the attacker and took his personal information, and then called his colleagues, so we had to wait to give a statement. Two nice guys helped because I couldn&#8217;t stop that man alone,&#8221; says Dora \u0160por\u010di\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although many social network users see this act as heroic, Dora says that she only did what she considers normal behavior and that everyone should behave the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I hope that in such situations, there would be at least one person to act like I did. I think people have become quite selfish; they don&#8217;t have empathy and only look out for themselves; they don&#8217;t care about other people. This was confirmed because there was such a big fuss about what I did, not because of the event itself, but because someone wanted to help the attacked grandfather. We should help each other, especially the elderly because we never know what is happening to someone in life and what problems they have,&#8221; our interlocutor emphasizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She says that, just because the attacker did not stop to think about his actions, a tragedy could have happened, that the grandfather could have hit his head on the concrete even harder, and that the attacker could have ended up in prison for murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;It&#8217;s about home upbringing.&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;People need to pay attention; it represents home education. All my life, I have had empathy for other people, especially the elderly, and I believe that it is a matter of upbringing and what I learned from my parents. I would like everyone to pay more attention to the elderly; my late grandfather had dementia. I know what it&#8217;s like; people are completely different at that moment; they don&#8217;t know where they are, they don&#8217;t know what happened, where the tree is, the pedestrian, such is the disease, and it is terrifying,&#8221; explains the student Dora.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She emphasized at the end that she was not the only woman who defended the old man, but that another woman who was there and helped the grandfather approached them after the incident. As she explains, that woman told her that it seemed to her that the injured man had had a stroke because he had a partially paralyzed left side of his body and that they insisted that an ambulance crew come because the man had hit his head on the concrete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DBHD6GssujK\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
