Plano Woman Attacks Group Leaving Restaurant On Video~Makes Racist Comments

(Plano, TX) -- A Texas woman is facing charges after being captured on video attacking a group of friends outside a restaurant on Wednesday night. The woman apparently yells at them to "go back to India" in a Plano restaurant parking lot -- about 20 miles outside of Dallas. Esmeralda Upton was arrested on Thursday on one charge for assault bodily injury and one charge of terroristic threats. She was being held on a 10-thousand dollar bond, officials say. The five-minute long video shows the women calling the police, with Upton on the offense with apparent verbal and physical attacks on them. An investigation is ongoing by the Plano Police Department's Crime Against Persons' Unit as a hate crime -- with additional charges may be forthcoming.
