UPDATE: Teens identified in fatal Big Lake crash

BIG LAKE — Two teens were killed and a third was critically injured during a single-car crash early in the morning of Saturday, July 6 on Highway 25 in Big Lake, the Minnesota State Patrol said.

The three 17-year-old boys involved were all from Elk River. The two who died were identified as driver Donovan Gobel and passenger Anthony Krider, according to the Minnesota State Patrol. The Patrol had originally misidentified who was driving the car, saying it was Krider, but later updated its report to reflect Gobel as the driver.

A second passenger, Charles Gabrelcik, was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center (HCMC) in Minneapolis with life-threatening injuries, the patrol said.

According to the accident report, a Big Lake Police Department officer traveling south on Highway 25 around 2:45 a.m. observed a speeding BMW going northbound near Tarrytown Road.

The police officer turned around in an attempt to conduct a traffic stop on the vehicle for a speeding violation, but instead came upon a devastating crash scene, the patrol said.

The 2011 BMW 535 had reportedly left the roadway to the right and rolled, the accident report states.

All three of the teens were wearing their seat belts and road conditions were dry at the time, the MSP said.

It is unknown whether alcohol was involved, the report states.

Members of the Big Lake Police Department, Big Lake Fire Department, CentraCare Ambulance, Sherburne County Sheriff's Office and Becker Police Department all responded to the scene.

The crash remains under investigation.
