Petra László of N1TV was filming a group of refugees who were running away from police officers, when a man carrying a child in his arms ran in front of her.
László stuck her leg out in front of the man and the man fell on the child he was carrying.
A 20-second video of the scene was posted on Twitter by Stephan Richter, a reporter for the German television channel RTL and soon went viral.
The camera operator was also caught on camera kicking refugees, including a young girl, who were fleeing a camp.
Following these incidents, the TV station fired Petra László and issued a statement saying: “The N1TV colleagues today behaved unacceptably in Roszke collection point. Our working relationship with the camerawoman has ended. The case was considered closed our part.”
