Two NYC cops help mom deliver baby boy near Lincoln Tunnel entrance

Two Port Authority Police officers helped deliver a baby boy after his mother unexpectedly went into labor inside a car during the morning rush hour near the entrance to the Lincoln Tunnel.

Officer Timothy Jozefczyk was the first on the scene at the toll plaza on the New Jersey side in Weehawken, just before 9 a.m. Monday — where found Maria Marin’s son crowning, reported NJ.com.

“I put my hands near the baby’s head,” he told WABC-TV. “I instructed, ‘Keep pushing, keep pushing, keep pushing.'”

Although he’d never helped with a delivery before and has no children of his own yet, Jozefczyk used his training to guide the mom through the impromptu backseat delivery.

Three minutes later, the woman and her partner, Nestor Guallpa, welcomed a healthy son.
