Sports presenter Kirsty Gallacher has spoken about being pysically assaulted in London. The incident happened when Gallacher, previously a Sky Sports News presenter, was walking to her car. "Last night I was physically assaulted in the streets of central London walking from work to my car, the walk I do most nights," the 49-year-old said on social media. "The streets are well lit. There were people around. "I was walking on the pavement, and I noticed this guy, all in black, covered up, actually, just walking at me. And I'm always vigilant. And he was just walking towards me, and so I moved out of the way, and then he brushed past me. "He turned around, and he kicked me like he was kicking a football. He kicked me in the middle of a street at about seven o'clock last night, in front of people, and I turned around and he scarpered. "I'm still shocked now, and I have the bruises to prove I'm afraid. I can't quite believe what happened. I was not being provocative in any way. I was just going about my business as you do. I was just walking to my car to go back home to my family."
