The Dangers of Producing News

Monday night’s NBC17 news at 11pm ended with a little tragedy.  Producer Kim Prus ended up in the emergency room with a fractured foot after a newsroom mishap.

In the commercial break before the last segment there were a few changes.  While Kim was bringing the new scripts out to the anchors on the set, she took a tumble and hurt her ankle (she thought).  After spending two hours in the local emergency room, she was diagnosed with a ballerina type fracture of the 5th metatarsal.  Now, I’m not sure what all that means, but there are now crutches involved and possibly a cast later this week.

The World spoke with Kim Tuesday night and she seems to be resting comfortably and hopes to be back at work soon.  She has a trip scheduled to the orthopedic surgeon Thursday.

Best of luck and a speedy recovery Kim!
