TRENTO. A little girl is born on the highwayin the parents’ car which stopped in a lay-by. It happened in A22northbound, on the route between Rovereto and Trento. A police patrol also arrived on site and assisted the new parents. The baby is called Olimpia and is fine. The highway patrol stopped traffic and called for the emergency helicopter, but the baby was born before the doctors arrived.
The report came at 15:59 from the A22 operations room: it was necessary to land the helicopter on the roadway because a pregnant woman’s waters had broken at km 153, near Rovereto Nord, in the municipality of Volano. At 16:07 the highway police were already on site with the baby girl already born. The helicopter took off again without the mother and the baby: they are both fine and were transported to the Santa Chiara hospital in Trento by ambulance, joined shortly after by their father by car. Traffic was blocked for only 21 minutes, from 16:07 to 16:26.
