RICHMOND, Va. -- A 15-year-old boy is dead after he was involved in a car crash on Harwood Street in Richmond, police say.

The crash happened just before midnight Friday evening. Police were called to the 2500 block of Harwood Street after an SUV lost control and hit a pedestrian near the intersection of Richmond Highway and Harwood.

The pedestrian, four people in the car, three adults and one teenager, were hospitalized with life-threatening injuries. The teenager later died from his injuries at the hospital the next morning.

Police are continuing to investigate the incident, and believe speed played a factor in the crash.
