GLASTONBURY, Conn. (AP) -- A Connecticut state trooper made a very special delivery in time for Christmas.
State police say a woman was on her way to the hospital Saturday to give birth when she realized the baby wasn't going to wait. Her brother, who was driving, pulled over on Route 2 in Glastonbury and waited for help to arrive.
Trooper First Class Greg Capps arrived just in time to deliver a boy weighing 6 pounds, 2 ounces.
Capps says the mother did a great job.
Mother and baby were brought to the hospital where they were said to be resting comfortably.
