Natick Firefighters Make A Special Delivery: Report

NATICK, MA — The fire station on Speen Street became a makeshift birthing suite Wednesday.

Expectant parents were on their way to Newton-Wellesley Hospital at around 11:45 a.m. but feared they wouldn’t get there before their baby was born, WHDH-TV 7 reported.

They called 911 and detoured to the station, where five firefighters helped the mother with her delivery.

Both mom and baby later went to the hospital, about 20 minutes away, and were said to be doing well. To read the TV station’s coverage, click here.
