Updated 4:05 pm, Tuesday, March 26, 2013 LOS ANGELES (AP) — A 9-year-old girl who survived a rollover crash is out of a Southern California hospital and has described on video how she hiked more than a mile to find help for her father, who was later found dead. With temperatures dipping into the 40s, she hiked in darkness up the rocky embankment and along the remote highway to a commuter rail station where she flagged down a passing motorist early Sunday. Law enforcement officials praised Celia's courage and determination to find help for her father. The girl's caregiver Consuelo Amador told KCBS-TV the child didn't panic, and turned off the car's engine after she smelled gasoline.
