Willingness to help depended upon whose team won game

I am writing about the problem my daughter and her friends had in Keyser after the football game between Keyser and Frankfort.

Her car got stuck and a female student from Keyser came over and helped them until she found out that they were Frankfort students then she just walked away.

My daughter and her friends tried to get the police that were at the game to help. The police just left them there. My daughter called and her dad had to go over and rescue them. It is a half hour drive from our house. Which meant the three of them were left stranded. I know that the people all want their home school to win but that was really uncalled for them to just leave them alone without anyone to help them.

Oh, and in case people don't know Frankfort won and that was the reason that they were not helped. I thought that police were there to help everyone, not just the ones they want to.
