Samantha Grace Vaughan, 26, of Copperas Cove faces a charge of abandoning or endangering a child after Sunday's incident outside Killeen.

Police say Vaughan resisted arrest when she was confronted, thrashing about and screaming a racial slur at officers outside Trackside Night Club about 1:45 a.m.

"You will not take my child and place her with a [expletive N-word]," she said, according to an arrest warrant affidavit.

The woman's 1-year-old daughter was found unharmed in a Buick parked outside.

Handcuffed and placed in a patrol car, she continued to yell and struggle, banging her head against a steel bar.

A breath test determined Vaughan had a blood-alcohol content of 0.148, nearly twice the legal limit to drive.

She insisted that she'd gone into the club only to use the restroom but later admitted she drank two shots with her husband, whom she was there to pick up, according to the affidavit.

On the way to jail, police said, she continued spouting profanity, racial slurs and threats, resulting in a charge of making a terroristic threat.

"Crash this car and kill us both," she said, according to police. "I hope your children [expletive] die."
