The news is full of riot footage, police in military gear and endless confrontation.

All too often, we lose the human side of the story.

In Texas, Spectrum News 1 MMJ Bryan Boes found a different kind of police story to tell.

He just graduated from one of our virtual Zoom Bootcamps (5 days) and this is one of the first pieces he has done since completing the course - all done, of course, by himsel, with an iPhone and nothing else. 

Bryan was actually an anchor at KYTX 19. the CBS affiliate when he decided to ditch it all for a shot at becomng an MMJ.

Cleary, the right decision.
