A Pregnant Woman Missing for Months Gives Birth on NYC Subway
A Dramatic Turn of Events
A pregnant woman who went missing in Hallandale Beach last year turned up in New York when she gave birth on a subway train Wednesday. Jenny Saint Pierre, 25, had been reported missing on August 5, 2024, after she was last seen by her ex-boyfriend at Gulfstream Park, Hallandale Beach Police said.
Background Information
Police at the time said Saint Pierre was pregnant and living with schizophrenia. She was last seen by her ex-boyfriend at Gulfstream Park, and despite an extensive search, she was not found.
The Unexpected Turn of Events
Saint Pierre apparently wasn’t heard from until Wednesday morning, when she went into labor aboard an uptown W train at the 34th Street Herald Square stop in Manhattan, NBC New York reported. Witnesses said she fell to the ground as multiple people rushed to help her and told the conductor, who held the train at the stop.
Birthing on the Subway
Moments later, she gave birth, and two women who were on the train had to help cut the umbilical cord. The mother and baby were taken to a NYC hospital, where they were said to be resting and doing well.
A Sister’s Reaction
Saint Pierre’s sister Stephania told NBC New York she hasn’t spoken with her sister but had been in contact with officials from the hospital. She said her sister doesn’t have any family in New York and she’s not sure how she ended up there but is overjoyed that she was found safe. Stephania Saint Pierre said she and their mother were heading to New York Friday with the goal of bringing her sister and the baby back to South Florida.
