A woman in Texas was charged with attempted capital murder after she tried to drown a 3-year-old girl in an apartment complex pool after making racist comments, officials said. Mustafaa Carroll, executive director of the Texas chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said at a news conference Saturday that the girl was attacked by a white woman who made the comments to the girl’s mother, who was wearing a hijab, a headscarf worn by Muslim women.
