Call them the taxi twins.
A woman went into labor in the back of a cab Thursday morning during rush hour, officials said.
The unidentified woman delivered a baby girl at Clinton and Delancey streets at about 9 a.m., just before EMS workers got there, according to the FDNY.
The second baby girl was delivered as the mother was rushed to Bellevue Hospital.
Paramedic Alexander Khalef said "everyone was all smiles."
"The dad was happy, because now he has four girls," Khalef said.
