Two young adults have died following a snowmobile crash near Cambridge in the early morning hours of the new year.
The driver of the snowmobile, 21-year-old Hunter Melander, was pronounced dead at the scene, according to the Isanti County Sheriff's Office. The passenger, 21-year-old Faith Nelson, was taken to Mercy Hospital in critical condition. Nelson has since died of her injuries, the Sheriff's Office announced Tuesday afternoon.
The crash happened around 1 a.m. on Jan. 1. According to authorities, Melander struck a tree while returning to land after a brief ride on Lake Francis. Impairment and speed might've contributed, according to the Sheriff's Office.

The crash happened at Lake Francis around 12:50 a.m. New Year's Day. According to investigators, the friends were coming back from a short ride when they struck a tree..."The driver ?the 21-year-old male decedent...may have misjudged where the ramp off of the lake was," said Capt. John Elder with the Isanti County Sheriff's Office.
He says neither adults were wearing helmets at the time. "These are tough scenes. These are horrible," Elder said.
