Just foud him on the road a minute ago. His eyes are shut and he's not moving. I ran some cold water over him to try to get him to move. I thought I saw him move but I'm not sure. He's still unresponsive. HELP PLEASE!

Place him in a very shallow warm water dish. Make sure his head is above water level. And make sure he's not cold. Pretty much a waiting game to see if he comes around.
Or take him to the vet. About all you can do.

Thank you for the help. Sadly, he never woke up.
