The crash happened on Middle Road in Southampton (Google Maps) An 18-year-old man has died and two teenagers have been arrested after a car smashed into parked vehicles in Southampton.
A black Vauxhall Corsa crashed into parked cars in Middle Road at around 1am on Sunday morning.
An 18-year-old, who was one of three people in the car, died in the crash. Two other teenagers suffered serious injuries.
