Paris - A 41-year-old woman delivered a baby on a Paris sidewalk on Monday with help from a police team who spotted her in labour during a routine patrol, police said on Tuesday.
The Malian woman had just stepped off the bus and was rushing to the nearby hospital when time ran out.
A police officer sent his partner inside the hospital to alert nurses while he wrapped the newborn infant in his jacket.
