Armstrong Ambulance EMTs Help Deliver Baby
They initially suspected there was a car accident when they pulled over, but were graced with good news instead.

Two Armstrong Ambulance medical technicians had a Sunday to remember when they assisted in the delivery of a baby at 1:30 p.m. in Brighton.
According to a recent press release, bystanders on Soldiers Field Road flagged down a passing ambulance on Sunday. EMTs Trevor O’Shea and Eric Hackett thought there had been a car accident on the road when they pulled over.
The baby was born in his mother’s car before the Armstrong crew cleared his airway and cut the umbilical cord.
