Although some journalistic jobs are obviously more dangerous than others, one of the most nerve-wracking experiences in even the safest of communities is delivering a live report.
If a reporter makes a mistake or somebody interrupts the shoot, the solution is normally as easy as doing another take and making sure the first one never sees the light of day. But as they say, anything can happen when you're live and some members of the public seem to have a sixth sense for live reports.
While their interruptions often involve yelling something dumb into a reporter's microphone, some of their intrusions can take on a darker character. Sometimes, these people get physical and and over the weekend, one reporter faced a particularly uncomfortable case of this issue.
