Woman gives birth in forest near Canada-U.S. border crossing, calls 911
say they got a call at 10 p.m. after U.S border patrol agents told them that an emergency call was placed to a 911 call centre in the U.S. for a woman giving birth near Quebec’s Chemin Laplume in the Eastern Townships.
She was with a man and a young child. Authorities would not confirm the relationship between the three people, but “assumed they were a family unit.” Police were able to track the woman’s location via the GPS data collected from her 911 call. They first found the man, who had left the woman to get help. He brought police back to where he had left her and the small child.RCMP Sgt. Charles Poirier said the mother had already given birth and both she and the newborn were doing fine.
First responders arrived and she was transported via ATV to the ambulance and then brought to a hospital in Magog, Que. “We do believe they were attempting an illegal southbound border crossing,” Poirier said “I cannot confirm their citizenship status, but they were in Canada legally. They did not commit any offence.”
