Well, here is another + for the ATV community. Lately, we've been seeing stories about ATVers finding bodies in the woods. This morning I heard a different story. THANK GOD FOR ATVERS!!!
PITTSBURGH — A woman clubbed her pregnant neighbor over the head with a baseball bat, drove her to the woods and cut her belly with a knife in an attempt to steal her baby, police say. Police said Wednesday's attack on Valerie Oskin was stopped before her baby was taken after a teenager on an all-terrain vehicle came across the women.
Oskin, 30, later underwent an emergency Caesarean section (search) at a hospital. State police Thursday said she was in critical condition and her baby in stable condition. She was believed to have been eight months pregnant, authorities said.
Peggy Jo Conner, 38, of Ford City, was arraigned Thursday on charges of attempted homicide (search) and aggravated assault (search) and was jailed without bail.
"It would appear from the defendant's statement that her goal was to get the victim's unborn child and take it as her own," District Attorney Scott Andreassi said in a statement.
Investigators found a bassinet, a baby swing and other baby-related items in her trailer, authorities said.
"Clearly, she was expecting a child coming in shortly," Andreassi said. "There's nothing to indicate she was pregnant."

Thats a good one for ATV'ers. This is not the first time I have heard of someone trying to steal a baby before birth..in fact I think I remeber one just about a year ago that happened by me.
how much you want a bet he gets a ticket for riding at the same spot where he saved someone last week.
Wacked out people, that's nuts. It's too bad how little value people see in other people's lives. >:( At least the ATV'ers have their heads screwed on right.
