Woman gives birth in ambulance on Freeport Street

Two EMTs helped deliver a baby this morning in the back of an ambulance on Freeport Street.

The crew from Boston EMS was called to the Keystone Apartments in Dorchester where a woman was reportedly in labor. The ambulance then had to pull off the highway and onto Freeport Street, where the two EMTs, Hakim Reid and Bill Clapp, tended to the woman and newborn.

The mom and baby were transported to Brigham and Women’s Hospital and are doing well.
