Indianapolis/IBNS: A 56-year-old woman stabbed an 18-year-old Indiana University student multiple times in the head on a bus in Bloomington as the victim was Asian, New York Post reported.

The accused, Billie Davis, 56, told cops that she targeted the student for her race.

She told the police that the 18-year-old student "would be one less person to blow up our country."

The victim was standing and waiting for the exit doors to open on a Bloomington Transit bus when another passenger began striking her in the head, the police said in a release.

There was no interaction between the two women prior to the attack.

On Thursday, the police re-interviewed the accused who admitted to using a folding knife in the racially-charged attack and charged her with attempted murder.

It's unclear if she will also be charged with a hate crime.
