3:32 pm
bunch of people. there's no way those two guys had a chance. at one point they get this one guy down and just dog pile on him. >> hey! [ bleep ] [ bleep ] >> not now. [ bleep ] >> even though those guys are bigger dudes, you're never going to win that fight 2 against 20. >> didn't those two guys seem like they were chill? their hands were in a defensive pose, saying, hey, everybody calm down. >> what's really ridiculous about this, too, they're doing this in a very public area and it's spilling out into a crowded street? >> multiple people in the austin area sent this video to the police. we talked to the austin police department. they say there is a lot more to this video that wasn't included in this cut. they have tha vid us. they say they are in the middle of the investigation. no arrests or charges have been levied yet, but austin police

3:34 pm
the beginning of a bigger explosion. >> right. >> they're awfully close by for not knowing exactly what's going on. >> the firefighters were able to put the blaze out but they said the gas tanks weren't compromised in this thing, more than likely the tires were explo exploding. everybody was okay. the driver wasn't hurt. >> a vary noise. >> oh, my god. oh, my god! this video demonstrates every parents' worst nightmare. notice this woman putting a stroller in the back seat of the car. she's putting that stroller there because she's already put her 16-month-old child in his car seat. this man comes up to the car and he gets into the passenger seat. he's a carjacker and armed with a knife. according to police she tried to reason with this guy, please, let me get my child out of here, he wasn't having any of it and she finally starts screaming for somebody to come help her and help does come, two men arrive on the scene. the guy just backs out. the woman is being dragged along with the car. unfortunately the man does get
3:35 pm
away. according to police, he drives out of the parking lot, picks up his girlfriend, but they dump the car with the child unhurt about a mile away. now, this happened back in december. police just released this video but they say the man was caught the very next day because of the fingerprints he left in the car. >> thank goodness they did not harm that child. >> yeah, they arrested the man and his girlfriend. >> good. we go from every parents' worst nightmare to every pedestrian's worst nightmare. that's a yellow light. the light turns red in the middle of the intersection and there's a group of pedestrian standing right there and the bus crashes into them hitting two people, a 21-year-old and a 39-year-old. according to police, those two people miraculously survived. they went to the hospital and the doctor said, you're okay, go home. >> yellow light or not, those people were already out in the intersection. looks like a pretty big risk to take especially on snow-covered
3:36 pm

3:37 pm
this story. down in south africa a guy named brent lindekue, he got nominated and he decided he would change net nominations and make it about a random act of kindness. >> i'd like to make my nomination that originates from australia and i'm going to show you how south africans do it better. ♪ you never alone >> for you, buddy. thank you. hold on. ♪ always be there >> in this case they are actually doing something really good for someone else. >> yes, it's catching on! and now there are other videos of people in south africa doing the exact same thing. here is another video this is from andrew roth. >> the kids here are playing in the street with nothing and luckily sports around the world i know what sports can do. >> to tell us more about this new trend we have both brent and andrew roth via skype from south africa "right this minute."
