Share On

A seven-year-old girl will be honoured for helping rescue her mother after a car crash.

Squamish RCMP say Adelaide Prince and her mom were driving on Highway 99 near Squamish early last month when they were both hurt after their car veered down a steep embankment.

With her mom trapped, Adelaide managed to get out of the car and crawl back up to the road where she flagged down a driver who called for help.

Now that daughter and mother have recovered, Squamish RCMP and the Britannia Beach Volunteer Fire Department plan to recognize the Grade Two student for her bravery and quick thinking in a ceremony in Squamish tomorrow.
