Stephanie Grisham was reportedly roughed up by the North Korean security guards.

The White House's new press secretary was reportedly scuffed up in a physical altercation with North Korean guards amid President Trump's meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in the Demilitarized Zone between the two Koreas. 
"Stephanie Grisham got into a scuffle with the North Koreans to move members of the WH press pool into position to cover Trump and Kim, I'm told," CNN's Jim Acosta tweeted. "Grisham was a bit bruised. Source called it 'an all out brawl.'" 
Bloomberg's Jennifer Jacobs also reported about the incident on Twitter: "To add to madcap day at DMZ, the North Korean security was a little overzealous, at times trying to block US reporters' view. New WH press secretary Stephanie Grisham threw herself into it to make sure the US TV camera got into House of Freedom, and it came to body blows." 
After shaking hands with Kim in the DMZ, Trump took a historic walk into the North Korean territory.
He later took to Twitter and wrote: "Stood on the soil of North Korea, an important statement for all, and a great honor!"
