Emergency personnel met the Middletown Area Transit bus on South Main Street after a female passenger riding the Wesleyan Hills line began giving birth.

 

A routine bus ride turned into an emergency situation as a pregnant woman's water broke on a city bus Wednesday evening, according to the Middletown Press.
