The Saskatoon Police Service's major crimes section is now investigatinga crash that left a16-year-old dead and two other teens injured on Sunday morning.

The teen who died was a passenger in a 2008 Honda Civic when the driver lost control, crashed into a pole and flipped over, according to Saskatoon police.

He was declared dead at the scene.

The teen who was killedwas a student at Evan Hardy Collegiate in Saskatoon, according to theSaskatoon Public Schools board.

"We have also made additional counselling support available to respond to students' needs," the statement said.

Police confirmed toCBC on Tuesday that a15-year-old boy was driving the car. He sustained non-life-threatening injuries.

The other passenger in the car, another 15-year-oldboy, is in hospital with critical injuries.
