After allegedly making racist remarks to a child’s mother, a Texas woman is accused of attempting to drown a 3-year-old Muslim girl in an apartment complex swimming pool, prompting an attempted capital murder charge and demands for the opening of a hate crime investigation.

Elizabeth Wolf, 42, of Euless, Texas, allegedly accosted a Palestinian-American family on May 19. Police said they responded to a disturbance call at the apartment building about a potentially intoxicated woman who was yelling and attempting to drown a child. Wolf was stopped when she tried to leave the area. She was arrested for public intoxication, court records show.

The child’s mother was wearing a hijab, or an Islamic headscarf, as well as “modest swimwear,” according to a statement from Mustafaa Carroll, the executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations’ (CAIR) Texas chapter.
