When one of the reporters tried to take it back, the attackers started twisting his arms. The police observing the situation did not interfere.

The journalists were speaking Ukrainian when asking the attackers to stop and showed their documents, however, having understood that they can’t convince the angry mob and that they won’t get any help from law enforcement, they have left the site.
