Police say the officers found a woman who had just given birth to a baby girl, who was still in the woman's pants.

Police say Officer Taing safely removed the baby and removed the umbilical cord from around the baby's neck. Officers wrapped the baby in a jacket while medical personnel arrived and cut the umbilical cord.
