The footage starts with the anchor in a studio asking the reporter regarding the weather update in London. However, the thief footage was not captured on camera and the journalist also did not disclose what was inside his bag.
Low’s fellows also flooded the comment section and commended his bravery and calm during his work. Social media users termed him a professional journalist and also expressed sympathy with him for the sad incident.
It may be recalled that a journalist from Argentina said that she was robbed while covering the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
