<p>A white mother and her two sons attacked a 15-year-old black boy while yelling racial slurs at an Illinois campground, police said. Police say the woman and her two sons beat up a black teenager while yelling racial slurs at a campground southwest of Chicago over the weekend.<br />
Carrie Weller, 42, and Corry Weller, 21, were arrested at the Canton Lake campground at 4:35 p.m. Sunday after officers responded to a call of a fight in that area.</p>

<p>&#8220;They started beating him up and held him underwater until he was pretty much not breathing,&#8221; says the victim&#8217;s mother, Tina Foley.<br />
Investigators said they later learned that racial slurs and threats were made to the 15-year-old victim during the incident. Police said the Fulton County State&#8217;s Attorney will be adding charges of mob action and hate crime in addition to the battery charges already filed.</p>

<p>The 15-year-old victim had minor injuries and did not require medical attention, police said. The Foleys are stunned that this could happen where they live.<br />
The victim&#8217;s brother, Jordan Foley said: &#8220;I&#8217;m proud to be from Illinois, because I tell people from Alabama, you know, it&#8217;s not like that up there. And hell, here I&#8217;ve got a video of people trying to drown my brother, call him the n-word.&#8221;<br />
Canton is located about 200 miles southwest of Chicago.<br />
Weller and her sons could each spend 11 years in prison if convicted.</p>
