I would probably do the same thing as a solo rider - nothing wrong with tough love in this situation.
Certainly if the victim was part of my group I would help - but really his group should be looking out for him and he should be prepared with the basics. I'm pretty sure this guy will be carrying a spare tube from now on, which may save him from a tougher situation in the future.
