A man has died after a car hit a tree on Friday morning.
Police were called to the junction of Coventry Road and Berkeley Road in Yardley, Birmingham, just after 06:00 BST.
An 18-year-old man in a Hyundai i20 was seriously injured and confirmed dead at the scene.
A second man who was in the car sustained minor injuries and another man remains in hospital with injuries which are not believed to be life-threatening.
