It is said that the neighbor's children were also playing along with the child in question. White became angry and sent everyone home, she then chased her daughter.

The neighbor posted the 20-second clip on her Facebook page, “The video was actually recorded by my niece. Don’t know if any neighbors had witnessed this part but some did see her chasing her. It’s more videos. I was at work but called along with other people on my way back to Macon. All 3 kids were taken by ambulance and she was arrested. That just answered 80% of my inboxes.” She also mentioned that she doesn’t identify the woman in the video, “No I don’t know her or her name, her kids just play outside with mine and they have said this isn’t the worst she has done that they have seen, they just finally caught it on camera. Prayers for those babies.”
