Trooper Helps Deliver Baby On Interstate: WANE says Indiana State Trooper Sam Waterhouse recently stopped a speeder near Auburn, Indiana. The driver told Waterhouse that his wife was in active labor and their baby was coming. Waterhouse retrieved his medical kit and returned to find the father helping the mother give birth inside the vehicle. The newborn’s umbilical cord was wrapped around its neck, so Waterhouse carefully unwrapped it. The baby soon began crying and breathing independently. Waterhouse wrapped the newborn in a blanket and placed it in the mother’s arms as medical personnel arrived. Medics evaluated both mother and baby, found them healthy, and took them to a nearby birth center for additional care.
