This is the shocking moment an armed Belgian policeman tells two travellers he would shoot them in the head if he could as a young girl watches on.

The video starts with the officer, who is visibly angry, telling the Irishmen they have to leave the campsite.

As they try to explain that they have paid to camp on the land, the policeman says he would shoot them 'right through the f****** head' if it was up to him.

He mimics the sound of two gunshots as he makes the threat, watched by a little girl with painted nails no older than six.

One Belgian who has viewed the video believes from the officer's accent that it may be in the Flemish region of the country.

It is believed officers were called out over a dispute about unpaid charges at the camp site before one of them goes on a hate-filled rant.

The video starts with the officer, who gets progressively more angry, telling the Irishmen they have to leave the campsite

The 90-second clip, which appears to have been filmed without the officer realising, was uploaded to Facebook this week and then removed shortly afterwards.

The officer, speaking English, says: 'You just come here, and I do whatever I want, all you people you think you can do that. That's what you're like.'

When one of the men asks what he means, he sighs and says: 'I f****** hate you guys, you know that?

'If it was up to me, bomb through the head and bomb through your head.

'That's what I want to do. I can't do that, but f*** you. You go.'

When one of the men says that he has paid 270 euros to stay at the campsite, the officer shouts back: 'You didn't pay. I just checked with them, don't sell me b*******. Don't lie to me. You go.'

One of the men then responds by saying that he has spoken to his solicitor and is on bail at the address, but the policeman continues his tirade.

He can be heard shouting: 'No, no. You think you can do anything in the country. You just come here, you slack to the rules, you don't give a s***.'

When one of the men can be heard saying to someone in the background that the policeman wants to shoot them, the police man responds by saying: 'If it was up to me, I would do that yeah, right through your f****** head.'

When asked why the police man says: 'Because you're s***, s***.'

One man says: 'You should be an officer of the law, you should not be allowed to say that. You should know that'. The young girl stays quiet throughout the confrontation

After the pair argue with the policeman, one man says: 'At the end of the day you have your opinion but you cannot say that. You should be an officer of the law, you should not be allowed to say that. You should know that.'

The cop, visibly angered, raises his finger and replies: 'I follow the law for people who respect the law. You guys you don't respect anything.'

When the policeman is asked yet again why he wants to shoot them, he backs down, saying: 'I don't want to shoot you man, you've got to respect the rules.'
