NJ Trooper Helps Deliver Baby on Side of Interstate

A NJ State trooper helped a woman deliver a baby girl on the side of Interstate 78 in Summit, New Jersey, Thursday morning.

Shortly after 8:15 a.m., the expectant mother was in labor and being driven to the hospital by a friend when it became evident that the baby was not going to wait. 

The driver pulled onto the shoulder of the highway at milepost 45.8 eastbound and dialed 9-1-1.

When Trooper II Christopher Gesualdo arrived, he found the expectant mother in the back seat ready to deliver her baby. Within minutes, Tpr. Gesualdo was holding a baby girl in his arms after successfully helping mom with the delivery, Fox News reports.
