<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When Welsh fireman Adrian Smith responded to an emergency call on Sunday, he encountered every emergency worker’s worst nightmare.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mr Smith attended the scene of a triple-car pile-up to find his 21-year-old daughter Ella’s body being pulled from the wreckage.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ella had been driving home from the beach at Broad Haven in Pembrokeshire when the accident occurred, </span><a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/15282074/fireman-horrific-crash-discovered-beautiful-daughter-dead/"><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Sun </span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">reports</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Her 47-year-old father was on duty nearby when he was called out to the three-car crash, discovering that a car had smashed into the passenger side of the car Ella was in.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The driver, along with a man and woman in another car, suffered serious injuries, but Ella died at the scene.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“It must have been a complete nightmare for Adrian to find his own daughter was the victim,” a family friend said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Ella was a lovely girl, they are a lovely family - everyone is in shock and totally devastated.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hours after the accident, Mr Smith broke the news of his daughter’s passing by sharing a picture of him and her dancing together at a party when she was a little girl.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We are utterly devastated at losing our beloved Ella,” the family wrote in a statement released by local police.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“She was a much-loved and caring daughter, sister and granddaughter.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“She was a beautiful girl who will be missed by all.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tributes flooded in for the young victim, who worked at a bakery.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A friend described her as a “gorgeous person” while another said she was “the kindest soul you could ever meet”.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I loved every minute of speaking to you Ella, you never failed to make me laugh,” another friend said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Police have asked for any other drivers at the scene to share any dashcam footage from the incident, in an effort to find out more about the cause of the crash.</span></p>
