The U.S. Capitol Police helped a mother deliver a baby on Wednesday, the agency announced.
The officers helped the mother deliver the baby in the front passenger seat of an SUV next to the Hart Senate Office Building in Washington. Both the mother and her baby are in healthy condition, the agency, which “could not be happier for them,” wrote on social media.
“Cheers could be heard from the U.S. Capitol Police Command Center when it happened around noon,” the USCP stated.
