Usually all reporters have to worry about while doing an on-scene live report is some drunken a-hole mugging for the camera in the background, or at worst, that same drunk getting all up in their face while trying to do their thing on live TV.
Ben Higgins, sports director for ABC 10News in San Diego, had to deal with a situation that was much more dangerous than some drunken jerkass. Shortly after launching into his expert recap on the San Diego Aztecs first ever win in the NCAA tournament in school history, a white SUV, which may or may not have been driven by Al Cowlings, began backing up…and backing up…and backing up…nearly turning our intrepid reporter into well-dressed roadkill.
Lucky for Higgins his camera operator, Jeff Lavallee (?), saved the day with his quick thinking and even quicker hands.
