By JULIE CUNNINGHAM and CHRIS COLLINS

(Orange, MA) — A pair of first responders in the town of Orange have been honored for their efforts during an emergency call earlier this month. Paramedics Ray Hobin and Joe Larson were recognized for their efforts in delivering a healthy baby girl while en route to the hospital on September 1. The baby was delivered in the back of the ambulance after the pair responded to a report of a woman in labor at her home. Hobin and Larson were awarded stork pins and a stork decal which will be added to the ambulance used during the call.
