A TV cameraman sustained a scratched forehead after being struck by a stray ball kicked by Opposition Leader Peter Dutton during a photo opportunity in Darwin.
Channel 10 cameraman Ghaith Nadir was filming at a local footy club when the ball headed straight toward him.
The Opposition Leader then approached the injured cameraman to check on him, though the injury was not serious.
Peter Dutton was at the Palmerston sports ground to announce a $5 million investment in the local sports precinct.
