LYONS — A Wayne County 911 dispatcher is being commended for helping with an out-of-hospital birth last weekend.

Greg DeWolf, the county’s 911 operations manager, said a call to the 911 center came in at 12:40 a.m. Saturday from a person in Newark reporting that his friend was in labor. Dispatcher Paul Fera gave emergency medical dispatch instructions to help the caller deliver the baby about 7 minutes later.
