Elizabeth Wolf, a 42-year-old woman from Texas, was arrested for allegedly attempting to drown a 3-year-old Muslim child in a swimming pool in Euless, Texas, reportedly because of the child’s Muslim background.

Witnesses described Wolf as visibly intoxicated during the incident. Police reported that Wolf got into an argument with the child’s Palestinian mother before attempting to drown the child.

This incident follows Wolf’s previous arrest in May for public intoxication at the same pool in Euless.

After an investigation, Wolf has been charged with attempted murder and assault on a child.

The case has sparked widespread condemnation and renewed discussions about racism and hate crimes in the United States.
