Stork pins awarded to first responders who helped deliver baby pre-hospital

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WAND) - HSHS St. John's Hospital awarded Stork Pins to first responders who helped deliver babies who made their arrivals outside of hospitals.

Three members of the Springfield Fire Department, Michael Flynn, Frank, Morrell, and Ben Mundstock, and two members of the Chatham Fire Department, Jeffery Bone and Kyle Enstrom were honored for helping with a healthy delivery on Father's Day, June 18, 2022.

The baby delivered by the firemen was Corbin Sarsany. His mother and father say he is a healthy and happy baby. "I hate to think what would happen if it weren't for Springfield and Chatham fire," Sara Sarsany said. "They were there just in time, and they did their job efficiently. We are so thankful to them and owe them everything."
