The moped was thrown into a pedestrian, who was injured, while the driver left the scene. Local police have opened an investigation using the video footage.
What the video shows
The footage shows a man leaning against a parked moped, standing next to street vendors. A car then approaches from the side at great speed and crashes into the stationary vehicle.
The impact was so forceful that the moped was knocked out from under him and flew through the air, leaving the man sitting on the ground. According to the source, he suffered no injuries.
The injured pedestrian
Another passer-by was less fortunate. The airborne moped hit him, and he sustained several serious head injuries.
The driver did not stop to help and left the scene. Police are trying to establish the circumstances based on the video surveillance recordings.
