USCP Officers Help Deliver Baby

This afternoon U.S. Capitol Police officers helped a local mother give birth to a baby girl.

Cheers could be heard from the Department's Command Center when it happened just before noon.

A Captain, K-9 Tech, Sergeant and four officers were on scene.

The mother delivered the baby in the front passenger seat of an SUV on Constitution Avenue, next to the Hart Senate Office Building.

Mom and the baby girl are both healthy. Congratulations from the United States Capitol Police!

Thank you to DC Fire and EMS for the quick assistance.
