“He’s only two. He doesn’t know what’s going on, just like I don’t know what’s going on. I’m just as confused as he is, and he’s probably as scared as I am,” the mom told the outlet.Days later, police said that despite what North had allegedly told them and the boy’s mother, there were no signs of an armed robbery or kidnapping. North was arrested and charged with making false statements and false reporting of a crime.
“This was so so unexpected,” she wrote. “I never thought i would have to do this but things happen for a reason Gods Plan.”
