 More video from #baltimore #freddiegray mom stopping her child from acting up https://t.co/z9p8b32ytz — andresflava (@andresflava) April 27, 2015 
 
 The demonstrations, riots and other fallout after the death of resident Freddie Gray has inspired a hashtag called #PrayForBaltimore. I think these were youth coming out of the high school and they thought it was cute to throw cinder blocks at the police department and address it that way.” 
 
 [About that Baltimore mom…] 
 
 Baltimore’s ABC affiliate, WMAR, caught the encounter on camera but initially provided only this as an explanation: 
 
 This Baltimore mom saw her son throwing rocks at police on television.
– A Baltimore woman who reportedly saw a young man she knew (some speculate it's her son) on TV throwing rocks at police during city protests took matters into her own hands—literally, per WMAR. A video shows her yesterday dragging a teen sporting a face-covering sweatshirt away from the crowds, hitting him in the face, and yelling, "Take that f---ing mask off!" and "You wanna be out here doing this stuff?!" The kid skulks away with her hot on his tail, and the video—shown from various angles at Independent Journal Review—went viral on social media, with some, like Fox News contributor Charles Payne, calling her the "mom of the year," per WGN. "My mother would have done the same thing," Payne tweeted. Meanwhile, at a press conference last night, Baltimore Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said, per the Washington Post, "She started smacking him on the head because she was so embarrassed. I wish I had more parents who took charge of their kids tonight." (The Orioles COO has his own controversial take on the protests.)
