A Good Morning Britain correspondent, Noel Phillips, was grazed by a rubber bullet as he reported live from protests in Los Angeles on June 9. Phillips described feeling “an enormous ton of bricks” against his arm before realizing he'd been hit, leaving a swollen, bandaged wound. Wearing full protective gear, including a helmet, gas mask, and press vest, he remained on air and reassured viewers he was “much better” following treatment. The footage highlights growing concerns over press safety amid escalating tensions. These demonstrations, sparked by aggressive ICE raids, have become increasingly volatile, with officers firing rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse gatherings.
