I think he saw the excavator start to move and tried to run after it. From a logical standpoint there isn't much he could've done other than try to warn people, but I think Yumi was also closer to her house than he was, so she got there first. The scene cuts away as soon as she sees it through the front window, so we never see the guy get there, but I imagine he did try.
