A 17-year-old teen was killed in a rollover crash on Wednesday night in north Phoenix.

What we know:

Phoenix police say the crash happened at around 10 p.m. on July 29 along Cave Creek Road, just south of Hatcher Road.

When officers got to the scene, they found a crashed white Toyota Tundra. The driver, Jordan Cux Blas, was pronounced dead.

The driver of the second vehicle, also a 17-year-old, stayed at the scene and showed no signs of impairment, police said.
