RIFLE – A Colorado woman has become a viral sensation by being a Good Samaritan. She was defending two women speaking Spanish and someone caught it all on camera.

Kamara Trent says she was grocery shopping in Rifle, Colorado when she saw a woman berrating two other women, telling them to “speak English” and “be American”.

Trent says instinct kicked in and she jumped to their defense.

The woman at the center of this was identified as Linda Dwire. She was charged with two counts of bias-motivated harassment.
