A Good Morning Britain presenter was told off live on air by police today (June 5).
Jonathan Swain was reporting live from Dagenham, where suspects were being detained by officers investigating Saturday's London terror attack.
Eventually, after he tried to get closer and closer to the scene, he was confronted twice by police to step away.

Despite the interruption, he tried to carry on conducting his report as normal, so one officer responded by taking him by the arm and escorting him away.
The policeman could be heard saying: 'Please step away.'
Jonathan then hit back: 'Okay, okay, we won't go any further!'
Speaking to presenters Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid, the reporter said: 'The police are still relatively sensitive this morning, and understandably so because suspects were pulled out of the property behind me at around 4am this morning.
'Suspects are currently being held in police vans around the corner in the position we were broadcasting from earlier.'
