Toya Graham, the mother in question, as since been identified and recently spoke out about the incident. She says that she spotted her 16-year-old son in a crowd of teens vandalizing and looting.

My intention was to just get my son and have him be safe. And at that point, I knew that whole scene was not safe. It wasn’t safe at all.

Love her! #Great parenting #toughlove
More parents should’ve been out there doing the same thing.
We would love to, except for the fact the police would be at our front door.
The MD Police dept. liked it because it made them look good.
Now stand back and watch them get away with murder again. This is what we call ” Legalized Mafia”.
If she was disciplining her son for his grades in the same fashion, she would have been arrested. Fawk these pigs. Good job mom.
I am from Baltimore and I love the way this mom handled her son, I would have done the same. It irritates me how the POLICE applaud her efforts are supportive of her actions because it worked in THEIR favor. Had she just been a mom disciplining her child for improper behavior…they would have locked her up…. REAL TALK!!! But none the less, I am so glad she went to get her child before he got hurt or arrested
You are so right….they ( the white man) took our rights as parents away years ago. Kids are bad today because of that…spank your kids
Good Job Mom, Don’t let your son fall through the cracks….#ShowLove
I dont pay that *it no mind.I still handle mine.She made us Moms that still discipline look good.Keep up the good work Mom!
