Woman gives birth to twins in car

Twins Harvey and Hazel Qu came into this world on the morning of July 4.

It was during a storm that Madam Tan Swee Gek’s waterbag burst.

Her husband, Mr Qu Wang Jze, tried to send her to hospital, but was held up by the heavy traffic. He then stopped at a carpark where Madam Tan gave birth.

Two women passing by heard his shouts for help and rushed over.

One of them, a bank officer, called for an ambulance, while the other, a foreign maid, helped the couple.
