The video defies explanation. A Hungarian camerawoman, documenting the wave of desperate migrants sprinting from a holding camp, sees a man running with child in his arms. So she trips him.
The man, carrying all his belongings with him, falls on top of the boy as they tumble to the ground. He screams in disbelief.
Moments later, the same camerawoman kicks other migrants as they run, including a young girl in the leg.
The videographer, who worked for the Hungarian nationalist N1TV station, has been fired, Editor in Chief Szabolcs Kisberk said.
"The camera operator behavior was completely unacceptable," N1TV said in a statement.
The station did not identify the camerawoman, but thousands took to a Facebook "shame wall" to criticize her acts.
She was one of the videographers filming the flood of migrants trying to get through Hungary and into Austria and Germany. The migrants include many refugees trying to escape the carnage brought on by terrorists and war in their homelands.
