Shocking moment youths throw stones at eastern European immigrant and spark police probe in Northern Ireland
The teens were filmed demanding to see the woman's passport and telling her: "You are not a girl but an immigrant and you shouldn't be in this country"
THIS is the shocking moment a group of youths harass an Eastern European migrant - and throw stones at her before saying they "don't like Romanians".
The footage, which was posted on Facebook by one of the teens in Antrim, Northern Ireland, has now sparked a police investigation.
One of the youths tells the woman: "You are not a girl but an immigrant and you shouldn't be in this country."
The group then ask her if she has a passport and demand to see, but she says she does not have her bag with her.
They also ask her if she speaks English and ask her where she is from.
The woman states she is from "Romania" before a youth replies: "We don't like Romanians".
When the clip ends, one of the youths continues to follow her.
The footage was deleted by the youth after it started to be shared by numerous users on Facebook.
However, Antrim resident Emma Harrison copied the video and reposted the footage in disgust at the actions of the youths.
The video Emma Harrison posted has now been viewed over 480,000 times.
"We had a mutual friend and it came up because they commented,” said Miss Harrison, a bartender.
"I was incredibly angry, could feel my blood boiling. Not only was it absolutely disgusting but he had the gal to post it on Facebook and laugh about it.
"I tried sharing it but the privacy was limited to friends of friends and I knew it would likely be deleted quickly before many people seen it.
"I felt that everyone should see it to not only see what those boys are like but to make sure the victim knew she had the support of the rest of the community."
Miss Harrison’s post also attracted over a hundred comments from others angered by the actions of these youths.
Nathan Mcilveen said: "It sickens me how the kids think because the UK decided to leave the European Union these people have no rights.
"We're all entitled to a descent life no matter where we come from!"
Elaine Galloway said: "Pathetic, what's the point. Silly boys need a good talking to, disgusted."
Orrin Waring said: "Never disrespect a woman like that and put her in a situation where she feels threatened."
Police said the three boys involved have been identified.
In a statement, Chief Inspector Arthur Davidson said: "Arrangements will be made to speak to them formally over the next few days.
"We are also working to identify the victim in order to ensure she is offered every support as we move forward with our investigation."
