Video: WARNING Graphic Footage of Anderson Cooper saving bloodied boys life


Link: View Gawkers detailed coverage of this material
Description: Chaos remains in Haiti since the shocking earthquake of 2010. With social order in absence, it is survival of the fittest. This video captures massive crowds looting and fighting each other. Clearly, every man for himself.

Violence escalated when looters began using fallen debris as makeshift weapons. A 12 year old boy was bludgeoned with a slate of concrete during the commotion, splaying him on the street. You can see that one side of the boys face is bloodied and he is visibly incoherent and unable to walk. Anderson Cooper rushes to his aid, pulling the victim from the brawl and leading him to safety. The victims location and condition are currently unknown. Thanks Anderson Cooper for being a humanitarian, helping this boys when other journalists would have kept filming.
