Teenager dies as car overturns in early-hours crash
A teenager has died after a car overturned in an early-hours crash.
A 19-year old man died and two other passengers were injured when the Seat Ibiza overturned on Washwood Heath Road in Birmingham around 5:25am.
The roof of the car was cut off to free those inside. One of the survivors was seriously hurt and taken to hospital while the other suffered minor injuries.
It is not yet clear who was driving the car.
The road was closed between Foley Road and St Agatha's Road by police who warned it was likely to remain closed until Saturday afternoon.
A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: "Our thoughts are with the loved ones of the man who sadly died and we'll be offering them all the support we can during this incredibly difficult time.
