The Indian-American community in the United States is currently in shock as a result of the viral video showing that 4 Indian-American women experienced racial harassment and were being urged to “go back to India.” The suspect is Esmeralda Upton of Plano, who referred to herself as a Mexican-American woman in the viral video.
After a video of her harassing a group of four Indian-American women surfaced and went viral, prompting her to order them to return to India, police in Texas on Thursday detained the individual. In Texas, in a parking lot in Dallas, the incident happened on Wednesday night. The video shows the woman, who has since been detained, claiming to be of Mexican American descent while abusing many Indian Americans.
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

One of the users shared this video mentioning that this incident happened in Dallas, Texas, after my mother and her three friends had gone out to dinner, according to the person who posted the video.
