Police are scouring for information relating to an assault during a street fight that left one person in critical condition in Palmerston North.
A Palmerston North street fight has left one man hospitalised in a critical condition and has police urging anyone with information to come forward. A large brawl broke out near the entrance of Berrymans Lane on Broadway Ave at 3.15am on Sunday. One man in his early 20s was knocked unconscious during the fight and kicked in the head as he lay on the ground, Detective Sergeant Daniel Busuttin said. Paramedics took him to Palmerston North Hospital before being transferred to Wellington Hospital.
Thirteen days overdue, Solomon had been induced for labour and was prepared for a natural birth, but when nurses discovered her baby’s heartbeat was racing panic started to set in. Dilated at 1 centimetre and experiencing fetal distress the call was made for her to be delivered by a caesarean. “It was scary. I was planning on having that natural birth, but when that didn t happen it kind of daunted me, Solomon said. “That was a really big shock that you can be fine throughout your pregnancy and within an hour you’re having a C-section. “I’ve always thought about that feeling, as soon as you give birth the baby comes straight up on top of you.”
