A woman in Texas was arrested for attempting to drown a 3-year-old girl in an apparent racist attack. The incident took place at an apartment complex in Euless, Texas last month. The child’s mother, who is Palestinian and Muslim, reported that the attacker, identified as Elizabeth Wolf, made racist comments before trying to drown the girl.
The Texas chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations called for a hate crime investigation into the incident. Witnesses reported that Wolf argued with the child’s mother before attempting to drown the child in the pool. Initially, Wolf was charged with public intoxication as she tried to leave the area, but later she was charged with attempted capital murder and injury to a child.
The attack has sparked outrage and calls for justice from the community. The girl’s family is traumatized by the incident, and they are seeking accountability for the hate crime. The authorities are investigating the incident further to determine the motive behind the attack and ensure that the perpetrator faces appropriate consequences for her actions.
Incidents like this highlight the ongoing issue of racism and hate crimes in society. It is essential to address these issues and work towards creating a more inclusive and respectful community for everyone. The girl and her family deserve justice, and it is crucial to stand against such acts of hatred and violence.
