Four Indian-American women racially abused in US, told to go back to India #IndiaNEWS #India
Washington: Four Indian-American women have been racially abused and smacked by a Mexican-American woman in the US state of Texas who hurled racist slurs at them that they are ruining America and should go back to India.

This is so scary. She actually had a gun and wanted to shoot because these Indian American women had accents while speaking English.
Disgusting. This awful woman needs to be prosecuted for a hate crime. pic. twitter. com/SNewEXRt3z

The incident took place on Wednesday night in a parking lot in Dallas, Texas. The woman, who has now been arrested, is seen in the video identifying herself as a Mexican-American and assaulting a group of Indian-Americans.
I hate you Indian. All these Indians come to America because they want a better life, Esmeralda Upton is seen saying in the video.
The video shows her telling the group of women to Go back to India. You people are ruining this country, the CBS News reported.
The video has now gone viral and sent shock waves among the Indian-American community across the United States.
The video shows Upton using racial slurs, and at one point physically smacking at least two of the women.
The person who posted this video wrote, this incident occurred in Dallas, Texas after my mom and her three friends went to dinner.
The mom is seen contesting the arguments made by the Mexican-American woman and requesting her not to make racial slurs. At one point in time, the Mexican-American woman, who says she was born in the United States, is seen assaulting the mom and her other friends as well.
Everywhere I go, you Indians are everywhere, she is seen screaming in the video. If life was so great in India, why are you here, she shouted while inserting the f-word and suddenly started assaulting the four Indian women.
Plano Police Detectives arrested Esmeralda Upton of Plano on Thursday afternoon. She has been charged with assault, bodily injury and terroristic threats and is being held on a total bond amount of USD 10,000.
