According to a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police report, the mother, Latasha Renee Love, 37, called investigators to report her Pop-Tarts had been stolen, naming her own son, who is a juvenile, as the culprit.
The report said that the boy was placed under juvenile arrest and was charged with larceny/misdemeanor. Police valued the missing Pop-Tarts at $5.

Love, who police say had discipline issues with her child in the past, decided to have him arrested this time. The misdemeanor case against the boy will be handled in juvenile court.

Doesn't look like she needs any more pop tarts.
I applaud her. More kids need to be shown the way of the world.
That isn't the mum who had her kid arrested. It's a neighbor that they were talking to. The mum wouldn't come out to talk to the press.
