00:00We're still in the 80s here in the valley.
00:03A television reporter has been praised for keeping her composure
00:06after a flying cockroach landed on her during a live news broadcast.
00:11KTLA reporter Rachel Menitoff was reporting on a California heatwave
00:15when the insect landed on her neck and crawled across her chest while cameras rolled.
00:21Despite the unwelcome interruption, Menitoff continued her report without flinching
00:26before shaking the bug off as soon as the live cross ended.
00:31And it's a lot more comfortable at this hour, but we're still in the 80s here in the valley,
00:37so overnight temperature's not necessarily dropping,
00:39and this leads to less recovery time from the daytime.
00:43She later admitted it wasn't easy to stay calm,
00:46saying she knew if she reacted, she wouldn't have been able to finish the report.
