Rookie police officer has 'surreal' reunion with retired lieutenant who saved his life when he was a baby
Fox News
Retired police lieutenant Gene Eyster and rookie officer Matthew Hegdus-Stewart described their unexpected reunion on 'Fox & Friends Weekend.'
"I said, ‘Who is?’ [He replied with] 'Baby Jesus. He's sitting next to me. He's my rookie,'" he continued. "It was surreal." Taylor Penley is an associate editor with Fox News.
Eyster went on to explain the "Baby Jesus" name given to the unnamed baby was a nod to rescuing him after three students found him in a box just days before Christmas.
