A Canadian woman living in New Jersey is now facing charges after being accused of attacking a teen wearing pants that displayed “Trump” and “ICE” on the boardwalk.
According to a report from NJ.com, Kaitlyn E. Tracey, 33, allegedly “slapped the victim across her face and body.”
It happened after police say she approached the group of teens while recording them on her phone on the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk.

Tracey reportedly did not jive with the group’s “patriotic colored sweatpants with political wording,” police said.
The Point Pleasant Beach Police Department said it happened Friday night, July 3, during the start of the Fourth of July holiday weekend; surveillance video captured her allegedly “striking the juvenile female, once to the body and once to the face, with an open hand.”
