Political reporter Paul Steinhauser's car broke down, and he was supposed to be doing an interview with CBSN, and since he couldn't make it to the studio, he decided to do the interview via his phone.

Steinhauser was sharing his views on the New Hampshire primary election when someone knocked on his car-door, interrupting his interview, and the amusing incident was posted on Youtube by Inside Edition on September 12, 2018, and garnered nearly 50,000 views in just 48 hours.

"Paul, I am so sorry, it looks a state trooper has stopped to see you."

The anchor went on to commended Steinhauser for his work ethic, and to thank him for conducting the interview.

Steinhauser wryly explained that he had done many live shots in different locations, but never in a broken down car on the side of a highway.

A FASCINATED COP WAS WATCHING HIM

The unphased cop stood by the car clearly enjoying his 15 minutes of fame.

Presumably, he had stopped to inquire as to Steinhauser wellbeing and if he needed assistance and stayed on to watch the show up close and live.

As a part of the CNN team that won Emmy Awards for the network's coverage of the 2006 and 2012 elections.
