Wrong place, wrong time - and live on TV to boot...

Here I am, once again, proving that it doesn't have to happen in our backyard for it to be worthy of comment here on the blog. A Polish news station captured the harrowing moment a driver plowed into a teenage girl on an e-bike - as the reporter was covering a separate fatal car crash. The 14-year-old was riding along the side of a country road in Kościerzyna when the motorist slammed into her, shattering the car’s windshield and sending her tumbling through the air, according to the US Sun. 

Reporter Miłosz Sieliwończyk was in the middle of a live broadcast covering a separate fatal car crash for TVP.info - in which a young boy was tragically killed - when the terrifying wreck unfolded right behind him. “At one point, I heard a bang behind me and the operator’s shout: ‘Oh Jesus!’” he said.

As the driver sped off, Sieliwończyk ordered his cameraman to zoom in on the vehicle’s license plate to report it to police before walking over to assist the 14-year-old. First responders reached the scene within three minutes, and the injured teen asked to call her mother, who arrived on a bicycle a few minutes later.

Coupla things worth pointing out.The driver was most likely eyeballing the news crew instead of the road. Thankfully, the kid had a helmut on - probabaly saved her life. Finally, kids and e-bikes are a bad combination, period...
