Woman gives birth on subway train

BOSTON A woman gave birth to a boy Wednesday morning on a subway train in Boston, transit police said.

Passengers said the mother quietly declined their assistance while she was in labor on the full rush-hour train, said Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority Lt. Gary Fredericks. He met the train at the JFK stop on the Red Line after train commuters used cell phones to call for help.

"She didn't tell anybody, didn't say a word," about the birth, Fredericks said. "Next thing they knew the baby was on the floor." [Boston.com]
