VIDEO: It's filled with trucks and sirens, but one fire station answered a different cry. It was the perfect place for an infant to make her big debut at the Austell Fire Station. "She's beautiful, she's perfect," said Austell Firefighter Bret Langston. He has been on the job for 28 years and has responded to the tiny wail of a newborn infant half a dozen times. "So, it's not my first time delivering a baby," he said. As a father of six, he said he loves those calls and always wishes he could follow up. "You always wonder, what happened to that child," he said. This time, he doesn't have to wonder. The baby he delivered at his own fire station this spring was his own granddaughter, Adalynn. Mom Hannah was halfway to the birthing center when she realized she wasn't go to make it, but her dad's fire station was just down the street.
