In a surprising turn of events, a woman reported missing from Florida since August 2024 was found after giving birth on a New York City subway train. The woman, identified as 25-year-old Jenny Saint Pierre, went into labor on a southbound W train on February 12, 2025.
Saint Pierre's disappearance had prompted a missing person alert from the Hallandale Beach Police Department, with concerns raised about her well-being due to her schizophrenia and pregnancy. Her family worried something might have happened after an argument with her ex-boyfriend led to her leaving home.
The unexpected birth took place on a Wednesday morning, with passengers notifying the train conductor. A video circulating online captured the moment, showing fellow commuters assisting Saint Pierre before emergency services arrived. NYC Transit President Demetrius Crichlow praised the bystanders' actions and the subway community's support.
Both Saint Pierre and her newborn daughter were taken to a hospital and reported to be in good condition. Her mother expressed immense relief and joy at the news, eager to welcome her daughter and granddaughter home to Florida.
While the circumstances surrounding Saint Pierre's time in New York remain unclear, her safe recovery and the birth of her child have brought a positive resolution to a worrying situation. The Hallandale Beach Police Department has been contacted for further details.
