Violent scandal on the sidelines of the TV coverage of the state elections in Burgenland: According to information from the “Krone”, an ORF cameraman was allegedly attacked and fell to the ground – apparently unconscious!
In addition to the elephant round of “Krone” and Puls24, there was a stand of a private broadcaster – according to witness statements, an employee of the station in the country house in Eisenstadt would have gone here and passed the ORF the trial. Apparently they got in each other’s way.
“Stuck unconscious”
The situation escalated and a scuffle ensued – eventually the ORF cameraman lay on the ground and is said to have even lost consciousness. It is said that he was strangled by his opponent. The ORF man was then taken to hospital.
“It only fell over after ten seconds”
However, the employee of the private broadcaster defends himself and claims, according to eyewitnesses, that the ORF employee only “fell over after ten seconds”. It’s all just an act.
The police will have to clarify what really happened. The alleged attacker will also likely be charged with (serious?) bodily harm.
