Parents try to choke their 17-year-old daughter outside her school in an 'honor killing' after she refused an arranged marriage.
Ihsan Ali, 44, and Zahraa Subhi Mohsin Ali, 40, face charges of attempted murder and attempted kidnapping.
Footage allegedly shows the father choking his 17-year-old daughter.
The girl fled to Timberline High School in Lacey, Washington, after her parents tried to send her to Iraq.
The girl and her boyfriend were at the bus stop in front of the school when she spotted her father's pickup truck parked nearby.
Ihsan Ali confronted them, shouting at his daughter in Arabic.
Someone said his son 'starts to see her eyes roll back, and her arms start flailing' before she went limp and unconscious as he tried to save her.
'Her father had recently been threatening her with honor killing for refusing an arranged marriage with an older man in another county,' the girl told police, according to court documents.
