A Florida woman is facing multiple charges after allegedly using bear spray on two Black girls, ages 3 and 6, while yelling racial slurs.

Marion County deputies told Fox 35 that the incident occurred on May 30 when the two girls were playing with bubbles in their driveway.

The girls' mother said Ada Anderson, 81, approached the fence and sprayed mace at the girls. According to the arrest report, Anderson was screaming racial slurs at the time.

Bear spray can be toxic to humans if ingested.

"I thought at first, I thought it was a gun, so I was startled," mother April Morant recalled to Fox 35. "I'm like, but it was like bear mace. A big old cloud came, so I rushed the kids like, go in the house, go in the house."

"And so then I called the police on her, and I found out like she did it twice, and I didn't even know it was twice until my daughter let the officer know," she added.

Morant said the harassment has been going on for months since they moved in.

Anderson was also arrested in 2019 for aggravated assault with a gun and stalking.
