Three Harriman police officers helped make a special delivery overnight. 
Officers Edward Josefowitz, Michael Biagini, and Francis Burns helped deliver a healthy baby girl on Brookside Drive just after 2 a.m. 
Officials say the officers responded to a 911 call of a woman in labor. When they arrived, the baby just couldn’t wait.
“Each officer just jumped into action and assisted in helping the baby get there," said Harriman Police Chief Patrick Tenaglia. "We were there for about seven minutes prior to the ambulance responding so we were able to deliver the baby.”
Officials say mom and baby were transported to the hospital by ambulance and are doing just fine.
