Girl Scout Melina Lakey, 9, from Pendleton, Indiana, was awarded a prestigious Girl Scout award for rescuing her mother from an overturned car this spring.

This April, she was riding home from a movie theater with her parents when their Nissan Rogue hit a drain ditch and rolled over six times, landing on its roof.
