Baby born in the car, just blocks from Avera Hospital in Sioux Falls

A local baby couldn't quite wait for the hospital.

Sioux Falls police say a healthy baby was delivered at the corner of 10th Street and Cliff Avenue in Sioux Falls, just a few blocks away from the Avera McKennan Hospital.

An officer tells KSFY the vehicle pulled over to the Lewis Drug parking lot at that corner to welcome their newborn into the world.

This is the second baby this month delivered in a vehicle while the parents were on the way to the hospital.
