A woman has been accused of punching a 6-year-old Asian boy while hurling racial slurs at him and his mother in Las Vegas this week.

What you need to know: The incident occurred at The Shops at Crystals, an upscale shopping mall located in the CityCenter complex.

  • Tiktok user @uhmmajo managed to film part of the alleged attack, which shows the woman having an unhinged meltdown.

  • At one point, the woman can be heard yelling “China,” but it’s unclear what exactly she was trying to say.

  • “This woman attacked my son. She punched my 6-year-old while yelling racist, anti-Asian things,” @uhmmajo wrote.
