00:00South Korean police cut through barbed wires and climbed over buses with ladders on Wednesday
00:07to enter the presidential residence and arrest impeached President Yoon Suk-yol over insurrection
00:13accusations.
00:15The barbed wires and bus walls were built inside the main gate of Yoon's hillside residence
00:20where he has been holed up for weeks behind a small army of personal security.
00:25There was no physical conflict between the police and the presidential guards, local
00:29media reported.
00:31Yoon's lawyers had argued that attempts to detain Yoon were illegal and designed to publicly
00:36humiliate him.
00:37The warrant that investigators secured for his arrest was the first to be issued against
00:41an incumbent South Korean president.
