A video appears to show a picketing Verizon worker placing his young daughter in front of an oncoming truck, presumably carrying non-union employees, and then taunting the passengers with profanity-laced statements.
"That's who you're hurting," the man says, pointing to the girl. "You're taking it from our family. Good job. Go back where you came from. Look at her face."
Contains NSFW language.

The video is a sign of the intensifying standoff between Verizon and roughly 45,000 of its union employees.
The two unions, the Communications Workers of America and International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, have been on strike since negotiations for a new three-year contract broke down.
