A video of a baby smoking a small cigar outraged social media users Wednesday, who alerted North Carolina authorities and helped them identify the 20-year-old mother. It is unclear where the video originated, when it was posted and whether the substance the child was smoking was marijuana. “Big thanks to everyone who posted information about the smoking mother and baby,” police told their Facebook followers in a post Wednesday afternoon. Dozens of their followers began posting the video and comments about it on the Raleigh Police Department’s Facebook page just after 9:30 a.m. Wednesday. “Once more and more people found out about this situation, they showed me a screen grab of her actual Facebook page,” Martin told the AP.
