A BABY born in a Croatian village cut off by a blizzard is to be
called "Snow-White", the Sata internet news site reported overnight.

Her mother, Marta Glavota, 30, called emergency services for help
to deliver the baby, but snow, which has been falling since Thursday,
closed off all access to her southern village of Vitusa.

Emergency services got to within four kilometres (two miles) of the village
before being forced back.

A doctor then called the pregnant woman and gave advice over the phone
to two neighbours, who assisted in the birth of the black-haired girl
Snjezana, meaning snow-white in Croatian.

Both mother and daughter were doing well, Sata said.
