Quake baby rescued from rubble

Rescuers today pulled a baby girl from the rubble of her home in Pakistan eight days after an earthquake killed tens of thousands of people, the military said.

Major General Shaukat Sultan, the chief army spokesman, said soldiers rescued the polio-stricken baby from the debris in the village of Sanger, near Balakot, a town in North West Frontier Province that was flattened by the quake.
