"There was a bloody guy lying in the middle of the street at Hollywood and Highland and no one was doing anything," a witness tells the website.

Driving by in his car, Kwanten, 34, "pulled up, saw the man down, jumped out of his car, and raced over to see if he could help."

The Australian actor then quickly called upon some other folks on the scene to move the injured man to the sidewalk.

"He stayed there watching him until paramedics arrived," the witness continued.

When asked about the incident by UsMagazine.com, Kwanten's rep had no further details.

    he's from Australia what do u expect? americans are shallow and selfish. i hate the fact that we are looked at as such. i could NEVER drive or walk past something like that. compassion is not a common thing these days.... sad....

    i agree, jess. human beings seem to lack humanity, and it's disgusting.

    i like to see things like this. it just amazes me though how people can see someone hurt,being beaten, dying, etc.. and not do anything about it. like they have better things to do or like they are too scared to help. good for him.
