Zagreb - A baby born in a Croatian village cut off by a blizzard will be called “Snow White”, the Sata Internet news site reported on Sunday.
Her mother, Marta Glavota, 30, called emergency services for help to deliver the baby, but the heavy snow, which has been falling since Thursday, closed off all access to her southern village of Vitusa.
Emergency services personnel got to within four kilometres of the village before being forced back.
A doctor then called the pregnant woman and gave advice over the telephone to two neighbours, who assisted in Sunday's birth of the black-haired girl Snjezana. The newborn’s name means “Snow White” in Croatian.
Both mother and daughter were doing well, Sata said. - Sapa-AFP
