Puerto Rico: Dying woman delivers child

Some stories speak for themselves:
A woman wounded in drive-by shooting in Puerto Rico was kept alive just long enough for doctors to deliver her child, a hospital spokesman said Wednesday.

The infant was in stable condition in the neonatal intensive care unit of San Juan's Centro Medico, said Dr. Benjamin Rodriguez.
Glorisel Gonzalez, who was six months pregnant, was in bed Monday night when…she was hit by a stray bullet that apparently pierced the wooden wall of her home.

Gonzalez's husband rushed the 22-year-old woman to a hospital, where doctors kept her alive while performing a Caesarean delivery. She was declared dead afterward.
