A baby was born at 2:36 a.m. on the PATH concourse inside the World Trade Center’s transportation hub.
Port Authority police officer and trained EMT Brian McGraw, 34, was at the scene with two other colleagues, and he helped deliver Mawra Abdrabo’s baby, with the woman’s husband and 2-year-old son there as well, the New York Times reports. An ambulance took mom and her newborn daughter, Asenat, to NewYork-Presbyterian/Lower Manhattan Hospital, where the baby, weighing 6 pounds, 4 ounces, is in stable condition, a Port Authority spokesperson told the Times.
