Video circulating online shows an unidentified man groping Spanish reporter Isa Balado on live television Tuesday, according to multiple reports.
Police later arrested the man in question on suspicion of sexual assault, the BBC reported. Balado is a reporter for the “En boca de todos” television program, according to Al Jazeera.
She was covering a robbery in the Spanish capital city of Madrid when a man approached her from behind and appeared to touch her bottom before asking which news channel she works for, according to a translated clip of the moment.
“One second, we are live. Sorry,” Balado said as the incident happened, according to a translated version of the video shared by Al Jazeera.
“Isa, forgive me for interrupting you,” anchor Nacho Abad said, the translated clip shows. “Forgive me. The sound is bad, but did he just touch your butt?”
Abad then insisted she show the man’s face on camera and called the man a “stupid guy.” Balado then confronted the man on-air, and the man denied groping her. He later apologized and said “I didn’t want to touch your butt.”
According to the clip, the man ruffled Balado’s hair as he walked away.
