Police officer pulls over speeding car; woman inside gives birth

Seattle police officers wound up helping with the birth of a baby after a routine traffic stop and it was all recorded on a patrol car's dashboard camera.

The department says Officer Anthony Reynolds pulled over the car after he saw it speeding and running red lights in South Seattle at about 3:45 a.m. Sunday. The driver opened his door and shouted that his wife was in labor.

Reynolds radioed for an ambulance, but it didn't get there in time, and 3 other officers arrived just as the baby was born. The girl gave a cry but then began struggling to breathe, and Reynolds helped the mother clear the baby's airway and got her breathing again.

The police department reports that the family is doing well, and they sent along a note thanking the officers.

  16. Everyday now a different feel good story about US cops on LIB. We know who your latest client is. Nobody said all cops are bad, but the ones that commit brutality against innocent black civilians in the US shouldn't be forgotten with good PR. The bad apples should get the spotlight because they have to handle with responsibility the distinction of being allowed to carry a gun for self defense.

  20. In UK the police will still give them speeding ticket and ticket for passenging through affect red light.
    It is 6 points and £180 for breaking the law.

  22. He was lucky the police didn't shoot him after opening the door. I remember when I got close to a police in Chicago he was so paranoid and scream I step back. American police are so paranoid and I don't blame them lot of crazy people with guns That's why there's a lot of killing of black male this days by the police cause black people scare them
