Terrifying moment NBC journalist is hit by a 'flash-bang grenade' while reporting live on Seattle
AN NBC News reporter was apparently hit by a flash-bang grenade while covering protests in Seattle on Monday night.
Jo Ling Kent was live on MSNBC in the city's Capitol Hill neighborhood when she was caught in what appeared to be fireworks.
"I don't know if you can hear me, but we have police now advancing on protesters," Kent said, before her left hand was then struck.
The news network reported that the crew initially thought the reporter was hit by a firework, but "after reviewing footage of the incident from multiple angles, the team concluded it was a flash-bang grenade."
