VIDEO: NBC Reporter Hit with Flash Bang Grenade During Broadcast
BREITBART ^ | June 2, 2020 | Katherine Rodriguez

An NBC News reporter covering the riots over George Floyd’s death in Seattle was hit with a flash-bang grenade during a live broadcast on Monday night.

A video of the incident showed the moment the reporter, Jo Ling Kent, was hit in the arm by the firework, which forced her and her camera crew to relocate and seek shelter immediately.

“Oh my gosh,” Kent yelled as she’s ushered off-camera by a security team, while someone else yelled, “****.”

Kent later tweeted that she and her production team were fine.

By morning it'll have morphed into an assault rifle purchased with the gun show loophole.

The Left including Schmuck Fumer applauds the use of flash bangs and is okay with the FBI lying about any incendiary potential.

>>Remember the reporters embedded with the troops for Iraq? Can anyone imagine ANY of these snowflakes doing that? I cannot.

There were reporters embedded with the terrorists on the other side as well who stood by as militants launched rockets from neighborhoods surrounded by civilians and then were dumbstruck if there was any incoming fire on the attacks.

Maybe the idiots should get out of the way. Only snowflakes unused to reality would do this.

"VIDEO: NBC Reporter Hit with Flash Bang Grenade During Broadcast..."

......... LOL ..... Heck ..... Did anybody even read the upper Chyron at the top of the video??? ......... It actually says it was a "Firework" ... FYI ...... Flashbangs are usually used in an interior or dark environment to startle and temporarily disorient an OPFOR's senses to give LEO's the advantage to enter and subdue perps. This was definitely NOT a FLASHBANG Grenade.

“That looked more like a firework.”

It is against rules to read past the headline. And you clicked on the link AND clicked on the video!

And actually used your brain. You better be more careful.

Great aim.

Riot instigators like MSNBC and CNN should be in jail.

You are correct. If it had been a real flash-bang, her jacket would have been more than singed. Likely fireworks from the low lifes.
