'A US mother has been arrested after she deliberately ran down her daughter in a supermarket carpark, police allege.

Ohio woman Michelle Touma, 41, allegedly swerved her van to hit her daughter Emily, 19, running over her foot, the Sandusky Register reports.

Touma had been arguing with her daughter as she drove her to her job at a nearby Taco Bell outlet.

Her daughter began shouting and hitting the bonnet of the car when Touma tried to drop her off early.

Police said Touma then swerved the van so she could strike her daughter in the head.

"The mum said that she was going to drive by with the window down and smack her daughter in the back of the head," a police spokesman said.'
