Face of the Day

A 15-year-old boy was driving a car involved in a crash on a Hamilton bridge, killing him and one of his three teenage passengers.

The four young people were inside a car that collided with a truck on Wairere Drive at Harrowfield on Monday afternoon.

One of the youths died at the scene, while another died at Waikato Hospital from their injuries the following day. The third youth remains in hospital with serious injuries, and the fourth was treated at the scene.

In a public tribute, family marked the death of Reef Connor Gurnick, who Stuff understands was the 15-year-old driver of the car.
