Rather than trying to help the people injured in the accident, bystanders allegedly decided to loot one of the trucks instead.

A man in his 40s was killed Wednesday morning in an accident involving four trucks on Highway 6 near the Kiryat Gat interchange.

However, rather than trying to help the people injured in the accident, bystanders allegedly decided to loot one of the trucks instead.

"Instead of lending a hand and helping, people are looting," a candy truck driver involved in the accident told Maariv.

Footage of the looting was spread on social media.
