I remember, years ago, watching a live local uk news broadcast, where a guy had built a structure that didn't have planning permission, and the council spokesman came along with police and builders to knock it down. The guy who built the structure pulled out a gun, pointed it at the council spokesman and shot him dead .... all on live tv

The rules for live broadcast changed from that moment forward

You have the same local news as me I think
