Looked up a dictionary. It does say it can be meant as "Hey" or "Look here" or something along those lines. Something like a variation of こら. We have a lot of variation in Japanese huh.

IMO you must be really rude or have a really close realtionship to call others using これ to someone you've never met before. Yes, the word こら or これ are used as an informal form of "hey".
I thought "Oi" might've been a good translation for こら.
I was remembering everything.Everything that has occurred since I was born into this world.Sorry 'bout that.Anyway, what are you doing spacing out in a place like this?Whoops,Oi,It's not like there's usually any reason to walk slowly.Where are you going in such a hurry?
