17-year-old boy arrested for causing fatal crash that killed two teenagers and injured four others.
A tragic accident occurred in Hull, East Yorkshire on New Year's Day when two cars collided head-on on Staithes Road. The celebration of the new year quickly turned into a nightmare for those involved. Emergency crews responded to the scene where a grey VW Golf and a black Vauxhall Grandland had crashed into each other around 1:20 am yesterday. Despite their best efforts, one of the passengers, a 16-year-old boy, tragically lost his life. Another young man, just 18 years old, was rushed to the hospital but sadly succumbed to his injuries later on. Two other passengers, a 16-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy, also sustained injuries and were taken to the hospital for treatment.

The conditions of the injured passengers vary, with the 16-year-old girl in critical but stable condition and the 17-year-old boy in serious but stable condition. The driver of the Vauxhall, a 34-year-old woman, suffered a badly injured arm and was also taken to the hospital. A 62-year-old man who was a passenger in the Vauxhall was also transported to the hospital for injuries that are no longer life-threatening, according to police. Two other passengers in the Vauxhall suffered minor injuries in the collision.

Authorities have arrested the driver of the Volkswagen, a 17-year-old boy, on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving. He has been released on bail as the investigation continues. The families of the two deceased teenagers are receiving support from specially trained officers during this extremely difficult time. The Humberside Police are appealing for any dashcam footage from the time of the crash to aid in their investigation.

This tragic accident serves as a reminder of the dangers of reckless driving, especially during celebratory times. It is a devastating loss for the families and friends of those involved, and our thoughts and prayers go out to them. Let us all remember to always drive safely and responsibly on the roads.
