Victorian teen dies in hospital after road crush accident

A teenager has died from his injuries a day after the car he was in was crushed by a truck in Melbourne.

The 15-year-old Coburg boy was driving in a Volkswagen Bora with three other teenagers on Monday when they collided with a semi-trailer in Somerton.

Emergency services had to cut the group out of the wreckage of their vehicle.

Three of the teenagers were critically injured.

Police say the boy died in hospital last night.

The death brings Victoria's road toll for 2015 to 234, only one less than this time last year.
