Journalist assaulted and threatened with knife while preparing to go live – World

A CNN Brasil reporter was surprised by a man who threatened and assaulted her as she prepared to go live during the Saturday morning show.

According to the newspaper Folha de S. Paulo, Bruna Macedo was going to participate in a direct from the CNN Saturday program, where she gave the most recent information about the floods in the city when a man appeared in front of the camera, threatening her with a knife.

The image was immediately cropped and the colleague in the studio, Rafael Colombo, hurried to explain what had just happened.

According to the presenter, Bruna was approached by a boy and, at the moment, it was not possible to notice the assault. Soon after, the image was cut and the journalist explained to the team what had just happened.

In the recorded images it was possible to see that the assailant was armed with a knife and that he was carrying two cell phones with him. “He threatened her, she handed him the cell phone, but the boy knew she had two, one personal and one from the company,” explained Colombo.

The journalist did not suffer any kind of injury, having been taken to the newsroom.
