Yeah they also credited BNN, who probably stole it from here. Just goes to show you how much this site has grown.

The funny thing is from what I can tell is they merged the Yonkers jumper story with the Dutchess County Fatal MVA, in which the woman was killed and her baby saved.

Let's hear it for modern journalism. And for BNN for more than likely swiping another incident from here.

That was my thought. Nowhere was it mentioned in the incident thread that she was pregnant! Hmmm, now it will look like this network is reporting false info!

And on that same note, this just shows that EVERYONE reads these posts, only report what you know to be factual and watch what you put out there, you may read it again somewhere!
