More information is needed.

If you so happened to cause the situation that harmed the person then you do have a duty to help.

Though, depending on the injury, helping can also be detrimental to the health of the one in need and without proper training can also cause more injury.

If you witnessed a man negligently driving who in turn hit another vehicle which caused the driver of the vehicle to be launched into the middle of the street into coming traffic.-no

If YOU were the driver that hit another vehicle which in turn ejected the driver from the vehicle into oncoming traffic and did nothing.- yes, you are responsible.
