Reporters Chased by Man with a Knife

It was a scary moment for a couple of Yakima TV Reporters.

A Reporter with KIMA (who the station does not name) and another Reporter (who the station also does not name) were interviewing a Yakima councilman candidate when a man pulled out a knife and started chasing them. 

The police and SWAt teams showed up after the man knocked over one of the cameras and went running into a nearby house. 

After a brief stand off, the man was forced out of the house by K-9 dogs and arrested. 

Here is the story that was done by KIMA, who apparently sent a male Reporter to cover it.

The story makes no mention of who the female Reporters are, or even talks to either one of them. Also, despite crews being on the scene, we never see the man with the knife. Not even after he was arrested. 

This is a great example of how NOT to report a story:
