A reporter and a cameraman for a local television station in Monterrey, northeastern Mexico, were struck by a vehicle that lost control while broadcasting live from a landslide scene.
Reporter Alma de la Rosa and cameraman Cristo Morales from Gambision channel were reporting from a road where rains caused a wall collapse. Debris had blocked part of a lane where a motorcyclist had previously been injured.
While standing near the debris for a live report, an SUV suddenly emerged, lost control, and hit them directly. According to Milenio, the driver lost control after another vehicle swerved into his lane.
Both journalists were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, and the 19-year-old driver was arrested.
