Onlookers Arrested for Urging Suicide Attempter On
.
Summary:
“Just jump already” and “You won’t die” were some of the last words a 19-year-old girl in China heard as she, suffering from depression, snapped and leapt to her death among the jeering whistles from the onlookers, a few of whom even doubted that the commotion was part of her plan to gain fame. Such indifference not only provoked nationwide condemnation, but also got some disorder inciters detained by the police.

Onlooker (n.)(旁觀者)
就如字面意思所示,onlookers 是一直在旁 look on 的人,也就是「旁觀者」,通常形容意外發生後在現場外圍聚集,「食花生等睇戲」的人士。
e.g. Nosy onlookers quickly gathered to watch a fight break out in the middle of the street.
e.g. Police had to vacate the area and push the onlookers back from the crime scene so that investigators could examine it —————————————————
