NEW YORK (CBS) ― The NYPD is looking for a hit-and-run driver whose apparent crime was caught on camera from high above East 48th Street last weekend.
The video posted first on LiveLeak.com is as disturbing as it is authentic. It documents a loud drunken fight in the street outside a parking garage opposite the Middletown Hotel at about 5:30 a.m. on Feb. 3 on East 48th between Lexington and Third Avenues.
It shows pedestrians, one of them without a shirt, struggling with each other, shouting and apparently arguing with the drivers of several vehicles attempting to leave the parking garage.
The really disturbing part comes when a white SUV that appears to be a Cadillac Escalade suddenly bolts the scene by driving across the sidewalk pinning and then running over one of the pedestrians.
A woman's screams can be heard as the large vehicle passes over the man who can be seen lying on his back. A doorman at a nearby building confirmed to CBS 2 HD that the injured pedestrian had broken kneecaps and dislocated hips from the incident.
The NYPD has confirmed there is an investigation underway.

Mysterious Space Machines - Caught On Tape
Mystery Space Machines - Pt 7
A Rense.com World Exclusive

All images and videotape footage ©2008 by John Lenard Walson. All Rights Reserved. Copying or Reproduction in any media are prohibited without written permission of Rense.com and John Lenard Walson. All text is ©2008 Rense.com. Links are encouraged.
Working night after night, John Walson continues to set up his equipment in the cold English countryside. He now estimates to have found around 100 space machines or space craft in the dark skies overhead. There is a great deal of new visual information in this newest installment of our world exclusive series which features four new videos and a number of still frames from them.
One of the videos was recorded with Walson's new HD camcorder and the results are even more stunning. As always, he selects his targets...and then focuses his telescope in on what appear to the casual observer to be 'bright stars'. As we will see, these objects are anything but 'stars'.
Here are the four new Part 7 videos. Take a close look at the first machine... you can pause the video anytime. Given the fact that these craft are very difficult to image, Walson has been able to capture a great deal of detail...and it is quite intriguing...
The following three stills show an interesting sequence of contrasted stills showing a second object in motion in the frame...which appears to be near the primary object itself.

Dolphins Are Cool
SeaWorld Dolphins Are Bubblicious
http://cbs4.com/local/SeaWorld.Orlando.Bubbles.2.647161.html
ORLANDO (CBS4) ― It's known that dolphins are highly intelligent mammals, now a group of young dolphins at SeaWorld Orlando are proving that fact once again.
They know that you don't need gum to create a bubble because the young dolphins have taken bubble-making to the extreme.
Two young juveniles have been observed creating underwater bubbles with their blowholes. Then they use their rostrum, also known as their snouts, to manipulate and play with the bubbles.
They're spinning them, making them smaller and larger, swimming through them and popping them.
This is a phenomenon that has intrigued scientists watching dolphins in the wild and now is fascinating millions of guests at SeaWorld Orlando, according to the marine life theme park.

Endangered Mongolian Desert Mouse Caught On Film
The first known film of the long-eared jerboa, an endangered Mongolian rodent with legs like a kangaroo, was released today by the owners of London Zoo. The gerbil-sized long-eared jerboa (Euchoreutes naso), found in the deserts of Mongolia and China, is classed as endangered on the World Conservation Union's red list.
The nature of the threat is not well understood, but it has been suggested that it is due to habitat disturbance from mining activities, overgrazing and agriculture, as well as possibly climate change.
The introduction of the domestic cat has put further pressure on the mammal.
