Johnston Co., OK -- Some happy news out of Johnston County, but it started out as tense moments for a Wapanucka family and a Coleman couple.

Josh Claborn says a man knocked on his door around 9:00 pm Tuesday, asking for his address. Turns out, the man was on the phone with 911, because his wife was in the car giving birth to twins!

Claborn tells us late Tuesday night that Johnston County EMS were able to help deliver the two newborns, and so far, there's word that mother and babies are on their way to the hospital and are doing fine.

Claborn says the gentleman promise to bring the family back by the house soon, to see where they were born.

Actually the Coleman First Responders & a very nice lady assisted the mom to deliver and did a wonderful job. Can't seem to wipe the big smiles off Jackie & Frank's face!
