A new mother and her newborn are safe in hospital following a medical emergency last night.
At approximately 8:15 p.m., December 10, 2024, an SPS Sgt. was on patrol when he responded to a call for emergency assistance at 25th Street and 3rd Avenue. The caller reported that his wife was in labour, inside the vehicle and he did not believe they would reach a hospital in time for the delivery. When the Sgt. arrived he coached the woman through a final push, resulting in the birth of the baby.
The SPS is so pleased our Sgt. was able to assist in this unique call for service.
