Baby born at WalMart bathroom

A baby born in WalMart in Banks County on Wednesday morning has made the news across the state. The baby boy was the first baby born in Georgia in 2013.

The mother reportedly went into labor three weeks early. Banks County EMS personnel responded to the call and found the mother and baby in the bathroom.

“All we had do to was cut the umbilical cord,” EMT Scotty Mathis told a reporter for Fox 5 TV in Atlanta.

Both the mother and baby were taken to an Athens hospital and are reportedly doing well.
