[cnn.com]

From the article:
[ During her interview with detectives, Poole Franklin, a Des Moines resident, said she was the driver and intentionally struck the girl because she "was a Mexican," police said. Poole Franklin then "made a series of derogatory statements about Latinos," police said.

Authorities are looking at whether Poole Franklin running the girl over was a hate crime, Clive Police Chief Michael G. Venema said during a news conference. ]

That's a hate crime alright. But whether the driver is just plumb out of her mind - who knows? Because that is NOT rational behavior to mow someone down just "because". (Even if you do hate people for the most ridiculous reasons imaginable.).
