"However, the offender was overtaken by instant karma and he slipped on the ice and fell straight into a puddle," the channel reports.
The journalist called the police and filed a complaint.

“We asked people who witnessed his escape, they said that this man ran from the subway towards the construction and industrial zone near Vydubychi. We immediately went there, but could not catch up. In any case, we have provided the police with pictures that clearly show his face, they will already be looking for the attacker, ”the journalist said.
