Officers were dispatched to the Four Freedoms Monument at about 9:30 Thursday night.

EPD Sgt. Anna Gray says the reporter said he had been assaulted so he stabbed the attacker.

His name was not released.

She says the reporter stayed on the scene and cooperated with officers, and no arrests were made.
