(POLL) What Would You Do If You Found Someone On The Street?

Investigation continues into North Main Street incident.

Port Chester village officials are expecting a report from the police department so they can review Sunday's incident in which a man lying unconscious on North Main Street for hours was passed over by pedestrians and then robbed repeatedly.

Police confirmed that despite the man being on the street for hours during the late-night hours, no one who was in the area called police to report a man needing assistance. The village resident ended up being arrested Sunday morning for trespassing when he was found in the backyard of a North Main Street home, trying to get into a back door.

A security camera from the home revealed that the man had spent hours passed out in front of the home, with none of the people passing by helping him. Instead, the video shows the man being repeatedly robbed - losing items including a watch and cash.
