At the time, Yorgi was reporting on a burst water pipe in an apartment complex road in Dunbar, West Virginia. While continuing the report, an SUV came from behind and struck Yorgi. She screamed and fell to the ground, and the camera also toppled over.
After a few seconds of silence, Yorgi got up and said, "I was just hit by a car, but I’m okay. Everyone is okay. Actually, I was hit by a car even when I was in college. I’m glad I’m okay."
When the anchor asked, "Are you hurt anywhere?" Yorgi replied, "I don’t know either. My life flashed before my eyes for a moment." After readjusting the camera and lighting, Yorgi said, "I will continue the report," and delivered the news.
After the broadcast, this scene began to attract attention on social media. Netizens are praising Yorgi’s sense of responsibility for finishing the news despite the accident.
