Woman who gave birth on pavement, killed on PBR

According to reports, at 9.30 pm, PC Morang of the Inter Agency Task Force (IATF) was driving a Land Cruiser west along the PBR, when Dennis ran across the road, was knocked down and died on the spot.

Morang was interviewed at the St Joseph Police Station and police are continuing enquiries.

On June 2, 2015, at 4 am, Dennis gave birth to a baby girl on the pavement in Curepe and became an unwitting video sensation. At the time, she had set out with her common-law husband, 53-yearold Anthony Abraham, to get transport to hospital.

The birth was captured with a camera phone by a passer-by and posted on social media, where it went viral. Mother and baby were subsequently taken to the Women’s Hospital and later transferred to the nearby Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex (EW MSC) after nurses reported she had been behaving aggressively and cursing them.
