Cops carry a pregnant woman to the hospital after walking 6 miles in snow, win hearts
In an act of sheer kindness, six policemen in India's northern hill town of Shimla walked 10 kilometers (6 miles) through heavy snow carrying a pregnant woman on their shoulders, the Times News Network reported.
23-year-old Kamini, a resident of Bhont village, had slipped into labor on the evening of Jan. 9 but heavy snowfall in the region cut her off from emergency ambulance services.
Her family was losing hope when some local policemen arrived with a cot, covered her with a blanket and ferried her to the nearest hospital.
