Virginia Beach, Va. – A 19-year-old man has died from injuries he received in a vehicle crash Wednesday morning.

Police say the driver, Ian McDonald, was driving a 2007 Volkswagen on Blackwater Road near W. Gibbs Road when he went off road and hit a tree.

McDonald was not wearing a seatbelt, but he did not get ejected from the car. He was airlifted to a local hospital in critical condition, but died the next day.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation, but police do not believe alcohol was a factor.
