First aid and after

The motorbike had just overtaken her. It had been going very fast. Then there was the bend. Just as Mrs Susan Turner rounded it in her estate car, she saw the motorcyclist skid, hit the crash barrier and fly through the air. She immediately pulled over to the side of the road, got out, and ran to where he was lying. The young man was unconscious and bleeding.
Other drivers stopped too. One of them ran off to call an ambulance while Mrs Turner searched for the first-aid box among the photographic equipment in the back of her car. Having found it, she dashed back to the injured man and applied a bandage to try and stop the bleeding.
Some time later the ambulance arrived, and the motorcyclist was taken to the intensive-care unit of a nearby hospital.
Mrs Turner left her name and address with a police officer and then drove on to her destination to keep a business appointment. 
When she arrived, she had an unpleasant surprise. £1,000 worth of her photographic equipment had disappeared. It had been stolen while Mrs Turner had been trying to help the motorcyclist.
Mrs Turner, who is 37 and a freelance photographer, said later: “I was concentrat¬ing on helping the youngster at the roadside. He was in very bad shape and I couldn't think about anything else at the time except the best way of helping him. In my hurry to reach the first-aid box and take it over to the boy, I had probably left the back of the car open. Everybody's attention was obviously on the accident, so it must have been easy to take the bag with the cameras out of the car. Whoever it was who took the equipment should have considered the circumstances. I simply can't understand how anybody could do a thing like that. I'd rather not say what I think of him. Fortunately the cameras and lenses were insured.”

A police spokesman said: “The thief knew what was going on. He coldly exploited the situation. It was certainly a callous theft.”
