A Florida deputy helped a woman give birth in a parking lot.
Dispatchers at the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s office received a 911 call from a man who said his wife was in labor in a 7-11 parking lot and didn’t think they could get to a hospital in time on Tuesday a little before 5:30 a.m.
Deputy Jordan Ream arrived to the scene in minutes to help deliver the boy and helped transport the family to the hospital, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

"While a car is hardly a place anyone would want to give birth in, Deputy Ream repeatedly reassured the new mom that she was in good hands," Sheriff Chad Chronister said in a statement.
