Chinese citizens reportedly harassed foreign journalists on the streets of Zhengzhou over the weekend while covering the central Chinese city’s recent flooding, the Hong Kong Free Press (HKFP) reported Monday.
Some Zhengzhou residents encouraged fellow inhabitants of the city to “call the police immediately” on Saturday if they spotted a BBC reporter named Robin Brant on Zhengzhou’s streets.
