A dump truck driver collided Friday with an SUV in northern Minnesota and left the scene, where the SUV's 18-year-old driver died, officials said.

The wreck involving three vehicles occurred about 8:20 a.m. at the intersection of County Roads 1 and 66 near Crosslake, the Crow Wing County Sheriff's Office said.

According to the Sheriff's Office:

The dump truck entered the intersection and collided with the SUV. A second SUV also was struck.

Emergency medical responders performed life-saving measures on the 18-year-old driver of the SUV that was first involved in the wreck, but the driver died at the scene. A front-seat passenger in the SUV was critically injured and taken to a hospital in an air ambulance, and a back-seat passenger was taken to a nearby hospital with noncritical injuries.

The truck driver "departed the scene with their employer," a Sheriff's Office statement read, but offered no further details. No other injuries were disclosed.

State records show the truck is registered to Schrupp Excavating of Pine River, Minn. A Schrupp family member confirmed that a Schrupp truck was involved in the crash, but other company officials were not immediately available to comment about the driver's departure.

As of Saturday morning, officials had yet to release the identities of any of the vehicles' occupants. However, the death of Pine River-Backus High School senior Keylah Kendrick prompted the school district to cancel its Shakespearean productions this weekend because Kendrick was in the cast.

The Pine and Lakes Echo Journal reported that Superintendent Jon Clark notified district families that "two of our students, along with a parent, were involved in a terrible accident." Clark added that the teen driver's mother and another student were in the vehicle.

The Sheriff's Office and the State Patrol are jointly investigating the incident.
