YUMA - A pregnant woman critically injured in the crash of a smuggler's SUV Monday gave birth by Caesarean section at a Phoenix hospital.

The 3-pound, 11-ounce baby girl was doing well, said Jorge Solchaga of the Mexican Consulate in Phoenix.

The baby, born on Tuesday, has been nicknamed Milagros, or "Miracles."

The pregnant woman was with a smuggler and 20 other illegal immigrants in a Chevy Suburban that overturned Monday while trying to elude U.S. Border Patrol agents about 30 miles north of Yuma. Nine immigrants were killed and 12 injured.

The mother and four other injured migrants remain hospitalized, but eight others have been released from hospitals in Yuma and Phoenix.

The driver of the Suburban, 20-year-old Adan Pineda Doval, is jailed on a federal charge of felony transportation of illegal immigrants.
