Collier County Sheriff's Deputy Robert Pounds knew he was in for more than a routine traffic stop when he pulled over a speeding car at 4:30 a.m. Tuesday. The car was going almost 20 miles per hour over the speed limit on Airport-Pulling Road in Collier County, Florida, according to the sheriff's department. "I looked inside the car and could see the crowning of the baby," Pounds said during a press conference covered by CBS affiliate WINK-TV. The baby's father barely has time to jump out and run around the car before the newborn begins to cry. The ambulance then arrived and both mom and baby were safely transported to the hospital.
