The Nebraska toddler seen in a profanity-laden viral video has been taken into protective custody, Omaha police announced.
The Omaha police’s Child Victim Unit and the Nebraska Child Protective Services stated the toddler and three other children were taken into custody on Wednesday. No criminal activity was found in the video, but an investigation found safety concerns.
According to KETV, the toddler and four others were injured in a suspected gang shooting and were relocated in the past due to gang activity fears.
The African-American toddler seen in diapers repeats phrases of profanity while the adults call him racial slurs and at one point he raises his middle finger. The adults also make references to gang activity. In the video, one of the adults can be heard asking the toddler, “So what hood you from blood?”
