Baby delivered after crash in NW Minnesota
MAHNOMEN, Minn. (AP) — A baby boy is in critical condition after being delivered by emergency C-section following a two-vehicle crash in northwestern Minnesota.
The accident happened Saturday night on state Highway 200 in Mahnomen County.
Authorities say 20-year-old Amy Aguilar of Mahnomen was driving west when she collided with an eastbound vehicle driven by a 16-year-old girl.
Aguilar was nine months pregnant. She underwent an emergency C-section and gave birth to a boy, Jordan James.
The newborn was airlifted to Fargo’s MeritCare Hospital, where he’s in critical condition. His mother was later transported to MeritCare, where she’s in satisfactory condition.
The other driver was not hurt.
