While delivering the baby on the side of the highway, Justin saw that the cord was wrapped around the baby’s neck.
Authorities say a man from Guthrie, Oklahoma, saved and delivered his own baby last week on the side of a state highway.
Guthrie Fire Department officials posted to social media that a couple, Justin and Tessa, were on their way to a hospital to deliver their baby on Wednesday when they realized they weren’t going to make it in time. Justin is a licensed paramedic with the Guthrie Fire Department, so he pulled his truck over and stepped into action.
While delivering the baby on the side of the highway, Justin saw that the cord was wrapped around the baby’s neck. He remained calm and successfully removed the cord and delivered the baby.

“Despite the craziness of the moment, Justin and Tessa were able to welcome their healthy baby boy, Axton, to the world,” Guthrie Fire Department officials posted to Facebook. “What an incredible story! Guthrie Fire and EMS wanted to say congratulations to your family!”
Guthrie is around 32 miles outside of Oklahoma City.
