Indian-origin woman cop helps deliver baby in UK

London, July 13

Scotland Yard on Monday revealed a recent beyond the routine duty undertaken by two of its officers, including an Indian-origin police constable, when they experienced a shift that took them from helping deliver a baby to an evening of lockdown breach disorder.

Police Constable Siobhan Singh and PC Isabella Taborro, from the Central West Command Unit of the Metropolitan Police, were working alongside the Violent Crime Taskforce to patrol areas of London.

Not long into their patrol on July 3, the officers saw a vehicle that appeared to be driving erratically as a man tried to urgently get his wife to hospital as she was in labour. The officers stayed with the couple in their hour of need until baby Clara was born. — PTI
