BOARDMAN, Ohio - Just one minute after the clock struck midnight, Anthony and Brittany Barone welcomed their new baby into the world.

Dominic Anthony Barone was born at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Boardman at 12:01 on New Years Day.

Brittany Barone tells 21 News that Dominic was born three weeks early. So she was surprised their "little miracle" would officially become the Valley's 2022 New Years baby.

The family headed home from the hospital on Monday. Dominic weighs 6lbs 13oz and was born 22 inches long.
