A female passenger in Miami went into labor and gave birth at an airport in a moment that was captured on video.

In an email to PEOPLE on Thursday, Nov. 14, Miami-Dade Fire Rescue (MDFR) said its units responded to a medical call at Miami International Airport on Tuesday, Nov. 12 at about 5:04 p.m. local time.

“Miami-Dade Aviation personnel, Miami-Dade Police and U.S. Customs and Border Protection assisted with helping the patient prior to our arrival,” said MDFR. “MDFR’s Rescue 40 transported one adult patient and a pediatric patient to a local area hospital.”

According to local Fox affiliate WSVN, the woman’s water broke and she began giving birth in the vicinity of Checkpoint 1 in the pre-security area.
