Raw audio; 911 operator & co-workers deliver baby

July 1/08
Polk County, Florida. A 31 year-old woman due any day went into labor on Monday at her office in Polk County. The woman's co-workers called 911.

As one woman explained how close contractions were the dispatcher, Sarah Elliott suggested they move the woman from her chair onto the floor. That's when you hear over the phone the woman's screams. Her water broke.

This was not the woman's first baby, so Elliott knew the baby would come fast. It was a matter of minutes before paramedics made it to the scene that the baby was successfully delivered.

Elliott says it helped that her co-workers were calm and followed directions. Mom and a healthy baby girl are doing fine
