Around the world, journalists face all manner of challenges, including during live broadcasts. But one Brazilian journalist got more than she bargained for.
Speaking in front of the camera during a live broadcast, a thief on a bicycle quickly passed by her and snatched her phone from her hand, reports the Telegraph.
Beatriz Casadei was in the middle of a live segment on Brazil’s morning show, Balanço Geral, when a brazen thief struck.
It is not known whether the thief was caught by the police or if the phone was returned to the Brazilian journalist. The footage has gone viral and has received thousands of likes.
