A daycare worker in Pennsylvania was caught on camera pushing a little girl down a flight of stairs.
Sarah Gable, 52, glanced up seconds after pushing the child, perhaps only then noticing the camera, which had only been installed a few minutes earlier.
Police Chief Michael Chitwood, from Upper Darby Police Department, told CBS: 'It's every parent's worst nightmare that sends their kid to daycare.'
He said: 'This was a horrific act, a betrayal of trust.'
The Delco Times reported an affidavit stated that: 'Gable was seen struggling with the child prior to pushing her down the steps. After the child fell, Gable was observed grabbing her and continuing on.'
Gable was fired from the Child Care of the Future daycare center in Clifton Heights, near Philadelphia, after the incident on Friday.
She was arrested and faces charges of assault and endangering the welfare of a child. She has been released on bail of $25,000.
