I just want to point out though that kid is clearly not european but Uighur. Yes, Uighurs (from the Xinjiang Province) are of turkic family, muslim and white. But the child is not European, that's for sure. The background knowledge about the Uighurs is that they are from a poorly developed province. Many came to big cities like Shanghai and Beijing and worked as low wage labor. There is also a stereotype of them as thieves and cut-purses, even the kids. I am not trying to say this kid must be a thief, just saying that there is a possibility to what happened before the clip started filming.
Their accent is kind of different from ours (Taiwan) but I heard the following sentences:
Women: 「...好幾個人」 "...A group of people"
The man kicking: 「大人在哪裡?大人呢?」 (Where is your old man? Where are adults?)
The man kicking: 「...打死你!」 "...beat you up!"
The man beside: 「...他偷的」 "...he stole that"
The the woman with the umbrella is saying something to stop the man.
The woman then said to the kid: 「下次不可以!...還要偷!」 "Don't do it anymore! ...steal anymoe!"
A man: 「說他下次不偷就不偷啦?還要偷」 (Do you think he won't steal just you tell him not to? He will steal agaiin!"
Woman: 「小孩子一下就哭了要」 "Kids cry so easily"

Yep... I made a thread about it. I've said it tons of time, but I go to school where all the students are exchange students from China. They've all heard the story, and they said it's normal because if you help someone (who is injured or dangered) in China, they can accuse you for the damage. It's been done many times, and this is the whole reason why it started the whole "don't help anyone" in China:
Quote:
"Nanjing judge" refers to the infamous 2006 case of a man named Peng Yu who helped a woman to the hospital after she had fallen only to have the old woman accuse him of knocking her down. The Nanjing judge in that case ultimately ruled that common sense dictated that only the person who hit her would take her to the hospital, setting a precedent that continues only further discourages and reinforces many Chinese people's wariness to help others in similar situations.
I remember at school this person dropped their wallet, I went to pick it up and my friend (from China) told me not to pick it up, because if there is money missing, then I will get blamed for it.
