A 7 NEWS reporter has been assaulted during a live TV cross after anti-war protesters in Melbourne swarmed her while she was on air. Teegan Dolling was on the ground to cover the protest — which has attracted about 25,000 protesters and a massive response from police — and was talking to Sunrise hosts Nat Barr and Matt Shirvington when she was targeted in the frightening confrontation.

Do you feel like that’s going to continue to escalate there?” Dolling replied: “These people have messages they want to spread and yet they are not willing to get that message across properly, but you can see it is just such a fluid scene at the moment.” Dozens of police created a barricade outside the convention centre to make way for attendees to enter, with protesters flanking either side.
