According to Struck, the little girl was soaked with gasoline and she was crying. Struck also has a two-year-old daughter whom he described as the sweetest thing in the world. He remembered that every time his daughter cries, he comforted her by singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" so he sang the same song to the little girl, KTLA 5 reports.

Jessa Matrious was behind the SUV before it rolled over. According to Matrious the car blew a tire and it lost control.

According to TODAY, the incident bothered Struck, he cannot forget the little girl who was left fatherless because of the accident.

"That moment will definitely affect me for the rest of my life," the police officer said. "Every girl needs her dad, but I'm happy I was able to be there to help get her through that emotional day."
