Baby Delivered in Krispy Kreme Parking Lot During Alabama Snowstorm
After icy roads delayed their trip to the hospital, Sha’Nya Bennett gave birth to her son Dallas in a car outside the closed doughnut shop.
- Sha’Nya Bennett, 23, went into labor during a historic Alabama snowstorm and was unable to reach the hospital due to icy roads.
- Her partner, Keon Mitchell, pulled into a Krispy Kreme parking lot in Dothan, Alabama, where Bennett delivered their son, Dallas Amir, in the car.
- Paramedics arrived shortly after the birth and transported the family to Flowers Hospital, where both mother and baby were confirmed to be healthy.
- Krispy Kreme awarded the family a year’s supply of free doughnuts and pledged to host Dallas’s birthday party annually until he turns 18.
- Dallas, nicknamed 'Glaze' by the family, is believed to be the first baby to have Krispy Kreme listed as the place of birth on a birth certificate.
