Sometimes as a police officer you are asked to do a little bit more than the job requires. Like delivering a baby. And in the case of this Suffolk Country officer on Long Island, it’s the FIFTH time you’ve done it!
Last weekend a woman on Long Island gave birth in her living room. One of the officers who responded was Sgt. Jon-Erik Negron. This was his fifth time in five years delivering a baby. It’s now earned him the nickname the “Baby Whisperer”.
Not only did he help deliver baby Owen, he may have saved his life too.

In Italy where pizza first started a lot of the pizzerias used “La Pizza” in their name. Back in the early 1900s when Italian immigrants came to the United States and started opening pizza places they dropped the L to make it flow better. It then because Apizza, or AH-BEETZ!.
