Thank you for delivering me." On October 5 1991, Mr Patterson's mother, Karen, was out shopping when she went into labour. After she had struggled home, her husband phoned a doctor.Mr Bailly, who had been on the job for four years, was the first to respond to the incident.Both the Patterson family and the Bailly family were "ecstatic" about the fateful reunion, and Mr Patterson and his mother visited Mr Bailly at his home, police said."We're not sure what the odds are of this happening — maybe they're close to the odds of a hole-in-one, winning the lottery, or being struck by lightning — but it happened," New Jersey State Police wrote on Facebook.Mr Bailly and Mr Patterson took more photos together to mark the occasion and shared the photos with the state police.A Facebook post about the chance meeting has amassed almost 9,000 shares but the main question on people's minds was — did Mr Patterson issue Mr Bailly a ticket?The state police told the BBC Mr Bailly was stopped because of his vehicle's tinted windows and was let off with a warning. #Thanks, #delivering, #Police, #officer, #stops, #delivered, #years #ustrooper, #bailley, #patterson, #chancemeeting, #newjersey, #delivered, #goodnews
