A woman gave birth in her car – and gave police a scare after leaving the vehicle “looking like a murder scene’’.
Emily Kathleen, 29, was on her way to hospital with partner Jake, 32, when she felt “intense” contractions.
They pulled over and Jake – guided by midwives on the phone – delivered their daughter in the early hours. But when the couple drove to a nearby pub carpark to meet an ambulance, Emily suddenly haemorrhaged.

They abandoned their Land Rover and were taken to hospital, where Emily was given a transfusion. While she was being treated cops found the blood-soaked motor and became worried a “serious crime” had taken place.
Emily said: “We didn’t even think about the car – we had to leave in a hurry. It must have looked like a murder had taken place when the police found it.
“The police came to hospital to check out our story and make sure it was actually because I’d just had a baby and nothing awful. It was scary at the time but funny looking back.”
Baby Piper, who weighed in at 7lb 14oz, has now been lovingly nicknamed ‘Landie’ after the car she was born in.
Modelling agency boss Emily, from Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, added: “The ambulance crew and doctors were all amazing. We’re grateful to the police for being so thorough too, despite it not being the horrific crime they might have assumed.”
