Good Morning Britain presenter SHOT while reporting live from Los Angeles protests and left with injury that 'felt like a tonne of bricks crushing arm'
A Good Morning Britain presenter was shot while reporting live from the Los Angeles protests and was left with an injury that 'felt like a tonne of bricks crushing his arm'.
Good Morning Britain was left in chaos on Monday as a report was interrupted by loud bangs while North America Correspondent Noel Phillips reported from LA, which turned out to be fireworks.
However, on Tuesday morning, host Susanna Reid, 54, said: 'You found yourself in the line of fire yesterday, didn't you? Just before your report at eight o'clock.
'We had no idea at the time. We've seen a number of reporters, in fact you reported on one yesterday morning of a photographer who had been hit, what happened to you?'
Noel explained: 'Susanna and Richard, just 10 minutes before coming on air yesterday, I was on the floor talking to several protesters.
'I was on the floor because it was the best place to be, given the fact that the situation around us was so volatile, officers were obviously chasing protestors on the streets.'

He continued: 'As I was laying on the floor, I felt as though an enormous ton of bricks had fallen on my arm.
'I realised, within about 20 to 30 seconds, that a rubber bullet had grazed the top layer of my skin and had caused a bit of injury.
'My arm was swollen, I went to the doctors, got it checked out, it wasn't broken at all.
'But, it was swollen, it still is swollen and it's in a bandage at the moment.'
On Monday Good Morning Britain was left in chaos when a report was interrupted by loud bangs.
Hosts Richard, 69, and Susanna Reid went across the studio to Ranvir Singh, 39, to get an update about what has been going on with the protests in Los Angeles.
North America Correspondent Noel Phillips was live from LA and told Ranvir: 'As you can see Ranvir, the police appear to have lost control of this particular area here in sown town LA, people are setting fires in the middle of the street, reports of looting, we have witnessed people running with what appears to be boxes from stores.'
Moments later one of force tried to get the journalist to move back, with him adding: 'As you can see police are trying to get these protestors Ranvir, off the streets. We are going to try and bring you more a little bit later.'
Just seconds later a loud bang went off and Ranvir told viewers: 'Just to be clear, my producer is telling me that was fireworks, because of course, there are several cameras there.
'I just want to that clear for you because it is alarming to hear that sound behind a live report.
'Of course Noel is on the ground for us all morning, we will bring you much more from that live developing situation in Los Angeles.'
Later on in the episode the show checked back in with Noel and he confirmed that he was okay.

Catholic school teacher breaks her silence after having sex with teen student
A Catholic school teacher who admitted to having sex with a teenage student said she was 'not asking for forgiveness' on Tuesday as she was sentenced for her crimes. Emily Nutley, 43, pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual battery for her affair with a 17-year-old pupil at St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati, Ohio, which lasted from November to December 2023. The mother-of-three then returned to Hamilton County Common Pleas Court on Tuesday, when she finally addressed the inappropriate relationship. 'There is no excuse for what I did,' Nutley admitted, according to WLWT. 'I crossed a line that should never have been crossed. 'I think every day about the impact of my actions,' she continued. 'I've lost my husband, my home, my friends. I've caused harm and embarrassment to my children.' She then told Judge Jennifer Branch that she is now 'engaging with professionals who will help me understand [my] choices' after previously claiming that her husband's 'neglect' drove her to pursue relations with the teen. 'I am not asking for forgiveness because I have not earned it,' the former teacher said. But Branch said she was hoping to hear more of an apology from Nutley, as she sentenced the one-time teacher to three years behind bars. 'I was looking for you to say that you acknowledge the harm that you caused this young man... You pretty much ruined the rest of his high school career,' the judge said, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer. 'I didn't see it. I didn't hear it.' Her comments came after the teen addressed the situation himself in a letter read in court by Assistant Prosecutor Elyse Deters. He said the entire situation 'altered my high school experience and my life.' 'When the abuse started, I didn't know I was being taken advantage of,' the teen claimed, noting that eventually Nutley 'would not leave me alone. 'She told me she would kill herself if I ended it. Even at sporting events, people yell her name at me,' the victim claimed. He also said that the abuse 'left me confused, lacking self worth and depressed. 'I can't get away from this. I have a hard time trusting people, especially authority figures.' In separate remarks, the victim's father said his dream of going to college on an athletic scholarship was destroyed by Nutley's abuse. The teenager first met Nutley in 2023 through a program she ran for academically struggling students at the Catholic high school. They began texting after school hours last autumn, and she sent him nude selfies and at least nine 'sexually explicit messages'. In one text message Nutley sent the boy the afternoon of November 30, 2023, she wrote: 'What would be wild is that when the whole school is at Mass, I give you the best f**k of your life in my office,' the Enquirer reports. Nutley and the boy wound up having sex several times from November through December 2023, at least once in her office at the all-boys school after hours. She also paid the teen an 'allowance' of $100 a month, would buy him food and at least once plied him with the answers to an exam. But by March of that year, the teenager wanted the relationship to end and asked to be released from the learning center's help. Soon after, the boy's grades plummeted and he was failing three classes. Meanwhile, prosecutors said, Nutley continued texting the student. Eventually, rumors also started to circulate at the $18,130-a-year school that Nutley was having sex with the student, and on October 8, 2024, the teen met with school administrators and reported at least four sexual encounters with the teacher. Nutley was fired as soon as the criminal investigation began, which led to her being indicted by a Hamilton County grand jury and arrested on October 28. St Xavier said at the time it 'believed this case to be an isolated incident.' A few weeks after the indictment, Nutley's husband, Jonathan Nutley, also filed for divorce, prompting his wife to accuse him of 'gross neglect of duty and extreme cruelty' in her legal response, TMZ reported. The disgraced educator has two daughters and a son, the eldest of whom is a junior at a different high school and only slightly younger than the victim. She previously taught at Madeira Elementary School, also in Cincinnati, and posted photos of her work and students there on social media. Nutley then joined the Jesuit school ahead of the 2021-22 year and was listed as the 'multi-tiered systems support coordinator' in the student handbook. In pre-sentencing documents, prosecutors argued Nutley 'preyed on the most defenseless person she could find' as her job at the school entailed identifying at-risk students and monitoring their progress. The prosecutors asked for at least a five-year prison sentence, while the victim's family asked Branch to sentence her to 10 years behind bars. But Nutley's defense argued she has already received threats from prison and has taken significant steps toward rehabilitation. Her lawyers also noted that she has already lost a lot, and said that a doctor who examined Nutley described her as a 'broken woman' plagued by mental health and substance abuse issues. Now, in addition to serving three years in prison, Nutley will serve a five year probation. She will also be required to register as a Tier III sex offender every 90 days for the rest of her life.

Dakota Johnson reveals surprising A-list support after her embarrassing Razzie win for box office disaster Madame Web
Dakota Johnson received the Razzie Award for Worst Actress in 2024 for her role in box office flop Madame Web. And now the 35-year-old actress is opening up about the embarrassing career moment, sharing which A-list star showed her support. Johnson — who is the nepo baby of Melanie Griffith — revealed on Amy Poehler 's Good Hang podcast that Sandra Bullock reached out to her about the disaster. Bullock received the same Worst Actress dishonor in 2010 for her role in All About Steve. In a show of good humor, she attended the event to collect the award. '[She] sent me a voice note being like, "I heard you are in the Razzie club and we should have brunch, we should have a monthly brunch,"' Dakota spilled on Tuesday's episode of Amy's show. The Lost Daughter star also recalled how she reacted to Sandra's voice note. 'I freaked out getting this message from her because she's so iconic to me, as like a movie star. I was like, "Oh my God." I was just crazy,' she said. Last year Dakota was said to have infuriated her Madame Web bosses by making multiple public digs at the Marvel movie amid its poor performance. She played the titular superhero in the $80million production, which was ripped to shreds by critics and viewers alike following its Valentine's Day 2024 release. About a month into its theatrical premiere, it had only grossed $40 million domestically. It had one of the lowest superhero debuts in recent history, taking in a modest $15.1 million in its opening weekend. Elsewhere in the Good Hang appearance, the silver screen siren chatted about the franchise that launched her to fame — Fifty Shades of Grey. She told Amy she is 'always psyched' to shoot the movies' steamy moments. When asked how she hypes herself up for portraying the act on camera, she answered: 'I don't have to. I'm, like, always psyched up for sex.' She noted that lessons she learned from her mother have spilled into her entertainment career. 'I want to feel good in my body,' she said. 'If I'm showing my body... my mom raised to me to be really, really proud of my body and love my body, so I've always felt so grateful for that, especially in my work, because I can use it and it feels real.' Johnson added, 'She also talked to me about sex and how precious and important [it is]. 'So I guess in my work... it's something that I feel brave with and that I feel when it's used the right way in a story, it's important.'
