Brighton Fire Rescue Crew On 'Mother In Labor' Call Arrives A Little Late

BRIGHTON, Colo. (CBS4) - A Brighton Fire Rescue District crew responded to a mother in labor call early Tuesday morning but they arrived too late -- the baby had already been born without their help.

According to Brighton Fire Rescue spokesperson Natalie Ridderbos, the department's B-shift Engine 52 crew along with Platte Valley Medic 57 arrived just a little too late.

The department posted a message about the birth on Facebook:

"By the time crews arrived, the baby had been born. Thankfully baby Levi and his mom are doing great! 52's crew stopped by the hospital to visit the new family this afternoon, and to give Levi a blanket and onesie (with firetrucks on it of course). Happy Birthday Levi!"
