GMB host hits back after being accused of 'breaking the law'

A Good Morning Britain correspondent has been forced to clarify that he did nothing wrong after viewers accused him of "breaking the law" on Monday.

Nick Dixon was reporting live from Lancing in Sussex, where an official police investigation is underway. It comes after a video emerged on social media apparently showing a police officer refusing a request to respond to a crime that was taking place just metres away.
