Anyone posting the pictures and videos whould be summarily executed.

Crowds of people gathered to watch a man nearly drown after falling
into a 30ft-deep river with nobody coming to help, police have said.

Unconfirmed social media reports also suggested some people took
selfies during the incident.

The man fell into the River Ouse behind the Radisson hotel near the
Ouse Bridge, in York, on Thursday afternoon.

There were two life rings within 50 metres, said the force. One was
eventually thrown to the man when police officers arrived at the
scene.

He was rescued with help from North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue
Service and the York Rescue Boat. He was given first aid by
paramedics on the river bank.

The man, who has not been named, is now in hospital recovering.

“People are too caught up in their phones and expecting the
institution to provide anything and everything that they forget
their own duties to looking after the community. Plenty of life
rings about, especially in York.

“No one has to go in after them but first response is scramble and
find something to help them stay afloat, usually a life ring.

“Standing and watching won’t achieve a damn thing - taking action
could save a life ... Always be on your toes.”

Following the shock incident, North Yorkshire Fire Service has
produced a video about how to use a life ring, and the public is
being urged to watch it.

“Floatation aids allow you to do this while minimising the danger to
yourself, which is also important. Those vital seconds can make all
the difference.”

The fire service said rescue attempts could be made with sticks,
scarves and other items of clothing, but people should not jump in
the water as they could be swept away too.
