A mother and her boyfriend in Maryland are behind bars after they allegedly beat her 6-year-old son to death because he took money from her wallet.

Officers from the Baltimore Police Department responded around 11:30 p.m. Wednesday to a home on the 6300 block of Greenspring Avenue for a report of an unresponsive child later identified as Brian Graham. Paramedics rushed him to the hospital where he later died. A medical examiner determined the cause of death to be blunt force trauma.
