Wolf, who is white, approached the mother while making racist comments, witnesses told CAIR and police.

Police say Wolf also asked Mrs. H where she was from and if the two children in the pool were hers.

Wolf then jumped into the pool and pulled Mrs. H’s children to the deep end, where she tried to drown them, the mother said. “Wolf tried to grab (the mother’s) 6-year-old son, but he pulled away from her grasp, which caused a scratch on his finger,” Euless police said in a statement on Friday. “The mother began helping her son when Wolf grabbed her 3-year-old daughter and forced her underwater. The mother was able to pull her daughter from the water. Her daughter had been yelling for help and was coughing up water.”

Mrs. H told authorities she jumped into the pool to save her children. Her 6-year-old son was able to escape, but her 3-year-old daughter was not, according to the CAIR release. The attacker “snatched” the hijab off the mother’s head and used it to beat and kick her, trying to keep her away while forcing her daughter’s head underwater, the mother told CAIR.

A man helped the mother rescue her daughter from the attacker, according to CAIR’s statement. As Wolf was being handcuffed by police, she allegedly shouted to a witness who was with Mrs. H, “Tell her I will kill her, and I will kill her whole family,” CAIR said in the release.
