Drunk man attacks Russian journalist on the air. Video

A drunk man attacked a correspondent of NTV channel on the air during a report about the professional holiday of Russian airborne troops which is traditionally celebrated on August 2.

When the journalist was leading the story, an unknown man appeared near him and started saying something about Ukraine and swearing. The journalist told him: "Stop talking, please." The next moment, the unknown man punched the journalist in the face while saying: "You don't talk to me like that, or if you do, you'll get more!"

The TV presenter in the studio stopped the report and apologized to viewers with an expression of awe on her face.
