Baltimore Mother Beats Son On National TV After She Caught Him Rioting [VIDEO]

With the looting and rioting in Baltimore growing worse, one person has decided to step up. Few were expecting that person would be one of the rioter's own mother. The video emerged Monday as the angry mom confronts her son, in the black ski mask, who was caught throwing rocks at police. You can see the women giving her son quite the smacking.

The violence escalated Monday, with residents (many of which were high school students) taking to the streets to confront police. The rioters threw rocks and chunks of concrete at the officers, as well as eventually looting and setting fire to local businesses. The violence erupted on the day of 25 year-old Freddie Gray's funeral. Gray died on April 19, a week after suffering spinal chord injuries while in police custody.  Maryland Governor Larry Hogan has activated the National Guard. 15 police officers were injured during the violence.
