Baby Eva’s parents will have a good story to tell her when she’s older.

ONE SET OF proud parents will have an interesting story to tell their little girl when she’s a bit older.

In the early hours of this morning a Dublin Fire Brigade ambulance crew from Swords were called to a woman in labour.

The crew had just arrived at the couple’s home when the little one decided she was done waiting and fire brigade paramedics Barry Holohan and Steve McNally delivered her there.
