Good Samaritan Struck and Killed in Chattanooga While Trying to Help Accident Victim

I recently had the pleasure of meeting the man one Sunday. I sat down and we started talking about his artwork. I asked him how he became interested in art... he told me he grew up with a bunch of older brothers, here in Chattanooga and that he had no formal trainig growing up- he had just always had the knack.
I promised the man that the next week I'd have him sketch my 2 young sons, and he showed me how he could capture their attentions so they wouldn't keep looking away.
The lesson ("trick")I learned in elementary school was, "there's no better time than the present". I failed to do so.
And for the rude comment, just some piss-ant kid who hasn't found any talent.

i agree with the first person. the ploice are not in the places they should be, i think that if the police knows that driving their cars home help with the site of the car bein there, then why, in heavens name are they not out driving the streets while on duty instead of parked in hidding somewhere, we need our police cars OUT THERE on the roads. where they can be seen. you don't have to hide to catch the bad guy, they are doing their crimes right out in the open.

The police are almost never where they need to be, meaning if they stop hiding behind buildings and popping out on motorist, they should make themselves visible and motorist would slow down and situations like this may not happen. I'm not blaming the police, but for them to be seen and not hidden makes a differance on how people drive. People tend to slow down when they see the police. I hate that this happened, someone doing good for someone else was killed. I hope this doesn't make other good people stop doing good for someone else. My prayers are for both victims and the drivers of the cars that were involved.

Wow...uhm, look both ways before crossing the street? I learned that trick in elementary school.
