The driver stops before fleeing the scene, leaving Yue Yue injured and bleeding on the road.
Following the incident, a man walks by, ignoring the two-year-old lying on the ground.No less than 18 people walk, ride or drive past the injured girl. A rubbish collector finally raised the alarm several minutes later.Yue Yue was taken for emergency surgery but was later pronounced brain dead. Millions have left comments on blogs in China, with one user saying it was the day the superpower lost its humanity.
WARNING: SOME PEOPLE MAY BE UPSET BY THIS VIDEO.


Some however say it is evidence of a society too poor to help, frightened of what it would cost should they be blamed. Police have detained the two drivers involved.
