Dog steals reporter’s microphone during live broadcast in Russia

A dog stole a reporter’s colourful microphone and ran off with it during a weather outdoor live report in Moscow, Russia.

A weather reporter for TV station MIR 24, Nadezhda Serezhkina, was delivering a live report in Moscow about spring weather in the capital when a golden retriever ran up and snatched the colourful microphone out of her hands.

Serezhkina was seen running after the golden retriever before the feed cut back to an anchor in the studio, upi.com reported.

The reporter returned to the screen moments later with her microphone back in her hands and the golden retriever, named Martin, granting her on-air interview.

The station said Martin is a “kind and playful” dog and Serezhkina is planning to visit the canine for a follow-up interview.
