CNN Brazil Reporter Robbed On Live TV

by Benny Franklin

A CNN reporter in Brazil was robbed during a live broadcast this past Saturday. 

Bruna Macedo and her news crew were near the Bandeiras Bridge in São Paulo, Brazil to report on the rising water level due to the heavy rain recently. 

During the news report, the suspect, who was a homeless man, was in the background looking over a bridge while Macedo was reporting the news. 

Towards the end of the segment, the homeless man appeared, and brandished a knife, reportedly demanding her two cell phones, which he eventually got away with. 

Macedo was not injured, but very scared due to the live robbing.
