FERGUSON, MO (KTVI) – A Missouri family says a newborn baby girl is lucky to be alive after being born in a toilet.

Dawana Jones says her sister called her on Thursday morning warning her something was wrong.

“She called me and said my water broke and I`m on the toilet,” said Jones.

Ferguson police say an officer arrived to the home on Dupree and helped pull the baby to safety.  Jones says paramedics detached the umbilical cord.
