FOLLOW UP: CAR WRECK BRINGS EVERYONE TOGETHER

Scott, one of our readers sent us a message regarding this past week's car accident in front of Junior's.  A few pedestrians were injured pretty badly, but it seems that some good karma will come out of it, at the very least.

Check it:

"Apparently, the owner of the store acted quickly and was able to move the car and free up the couple that was pinned in between. They were both seriously injured but the guy's leg was saved and the woman is going to be OK. A third elderly man was also hurt but not as seriously as the other two. The interesting twist to the story is that the couple was on their way to Yom Kippur services at PSJC on 14th Street, and the owner of Junior's is a West Bank Palestinian (a great local merchant, sweet generous guy, great neighbor) whose fast rescue actions, along with a nurse who happened to be walking past, may very well have helped save the injured guy's leg. Amidst all the sectarian madness in this world, this kind of basic human decency and compassion is reassuring and it's heartening to see it in action in our neighborhood."

We have no idea if this shit is true, but even if it isn't, let's pretend it is, because it's just so goddamn heartwarming.
