Baby Grabs Doctor's Hand During C Section

On October 9, a doctor noticed something extremely unusual.

He was performing a cesarean section when the baby reached out and grabbed his hand.

Normally during c sections, the baby's head is the first thing doctor's see.

No one has ever heard of the baby reaching out and wrapping their hand around a doctor's finger, til now.

The doctor told the baby's father, who grabbed his camera and snapped an amazing shot.

Nevaeh was born to parents Randy and Alicia Atkins, and all three have since been featured on TV.

Alicia, who is a professional photographer has been offered thousands of dollars by prolife groups, for the picture.

The Atkins' did send a copy of the photo, to the doctor, but have no plans of selling their photo.

Rex Ryan Caught With Sanchez Tattoo

Things got a little awkward for New York Jets coach, Rex Ryan. He was caught sunbathing in the Bahamas, Thursday afternoon, by a reporter for the New York Daily News. What the reporter caught resulted in his being cussed at by Ryan.

On his right arm, Ryan has two tattoos. One is a shamrock with the names of Ryan's wife and kids, pretty good choice there. However, the other will cause Ryan a lot of grief, it is of a woman, who looks like his wife, wearing a number six Mark Sanchez jersey.

Ryan has undergone heavy criticism for keeping the struggling Sanchez in for the 2012 season. He ignored calls to put in popular back up Tim Tebow. With the tattoo coming out, questions have arisen of why a coach would have one of his player's numbers. Accusations of favoritism have renewed.

Boulder Dispensary Robbed With Bear Mace

Dandelion Dispensary
A man walked into the Dandelion Dispensary, in Boulder, Colorado, Thursday night and immediately sprayed bear mace at the employees.

With the employees blinded and barely breathing, the man went on to rob the place.

One of the employees had to be treated at the hospital.

The amount of bear mace kept police from entering the dispensary, to investigate, for several hours.

Once it was clear enough to see, they still had to use gas masks to enter.

Employees described the man as "not thin" and wearing "all black".

Police believe he may have had an accomplice in the robbery, who was driving a Pontiac Grand Prix.

Bear mace is an extra strong form of pepper spray, designed to drive off bears, and can be deadly to humans.

Three New York Police officers were shot, Thursday night, in two separate shootings.

Around 18:30 EST, three robbers entered a used car dealership in the Bronx. One of them was armed and Officer Juan Pichardo, who was working off duty, fought him for the gun.

Despite being shot, in the thigh, Pichardo and a coworker subdued and unarmed the robber. The other two robbers took off running, but were later caught by other officers. Pichardo was taken to Jacobi Medical Center, where he is expected to fully recover.

At a Brooklyn subway station, Officers Michael Levay and Lukasz Kozick approached a man acting suspiciously, about 19:30 EST. They had seen him riding between subway cars, which is illegal.

The man pulled out a gun and shot both officers, Kozick three times, as well as a bystander, before Levay shot and killed the gunman. Both officers and the bystander were taken to Lutheran Medical Center, where they are expected to recover fully.

According to police, that gunman had a criminal history in both New York and California. His records include assault, a stabbing, and hopping trains. Witnesses say he seemed to be deliberately aiming low, so as to miss the officer's vests.
