Second Fatality After Serious Crash At Crabtree

Sadly, a 15-year-old male youth who was a passenger in a serious single vehicle crash at Crabtree, has died overnight.

This follows the death of a 17-year-old male youth at the scene of the crash last night (Friday 20 February).

Our thoughts are with the boys' family and loved ones at this difficult time.

A 23-year-old man who was driving the vehicle, and two 15-year-old male youths were also taken to the Royal Hobart Hospital for treatment.

A report will now be prepared for the coroner.
