Gerard Mungo Jr. sat outside the Baltimore city jail waiting for his mother to be released. He looked confused. “They took my mama because I was on TV,” he said. Less than two weeks ago, just days after he turned 7, Gerard was arrested for sitting on a dirt bike.

His mother, Lakisa Dinkins, was arrested Saturday afternoon because police said she interfered when they broke down the door of her sister?s home in pursuit of a drug suspect.
