when he passed,” the resident said. Police have so far today not released any fresh details about the incident, but have located a black BMW sedan they last night said was involved in the crash. At the right time, Halbert said a group will visit the site to perform a blessing and “bring a sense of closure to those directly involved”. He went to the victim’s car and saw him bleeding from injuries to his face and neck. It gave him “comfort” that “everyone did their best” to help the victim, he said. “He was pretty much fighting for his life by the time I had even got to the car and managed to apply pressure to his wounds.” The resident said it was heartwarming to see the police response and the way everyone worked together. “The occupants of the second car left immediately following the assault and police are working to locate them,” police said. The resident said when he started looking, he saw that two young men had already left their black car and were allegedly attacking the victim - who looked to be aged in his 20s-30s - in the car behind. The Beach Haven resident and others on the street said they initially heard the bang of a car crash. Police last night said they were seeking the occupants of a black BMW they believed to have been involved in the crash at the intersection of Tramway Rd and Beach Haven Rd last night. The resident who rushed to the victim’s aid, meanwhile, said this morning he and others had applied pressure to the man’s wounds.
