SAN FRANCISCO – By the time 9-year-old Jabari Sanders called 911, his mom was already giving birth to his little brother in the bathroom of their home.
"The baby's coming now!" Jabari told the dispatcher as his mom screamed in the background.
So the woman on the other end of the line talked the 9-year-old and his 11-year-old sister through the ordeal, telling them to towel off the baby and tie its umbilical cord with a string while they waited for paramedics. Their father, Geoffrey Sanders, called the calm kids "super heroes."

A reel-life chase involving actors on the busy Mall in Shimla left the police in a cold sweat as unsuspecting on-lookers pressed the panic button, mistaking an outdoor sequence of the popular teleserial ‘CID’ to be a real crime.
Police sprung into action as soon as a resident informed the control room Wednesday (March 17) evening that some thieves were being chased by people on the Mall. As they reached the spot, tourists and residents guided them towards the spot where the "action" took place.
