One of the teenage boys badly injured in a Chisago City crash from Oct. 25 has been released from the hospital. 

Ashton Oseth was released Friday afternoon, but still has a long road ahead, his mother told WCCO. He could face up to 12 months of recovery. 

The crash happened late last month and left two teenagers dead, according to police. 

The Lakes Area Police Department says dispatchers were notified of a crash just before 2 a.m. near the intersection of Stacy and Ivywood trails in Chisago City. 

Two vehicles, a Toyota Camry and a Toyota 4-Runner, were found near that same intersection by first responders. 

Police say the Camry was driven by a 14-year-old, and two 15-year-old boys were in the vehicle. Meanwhile, the 4-Runner was driven by a 17-year-old boy, and an 18-year-old was with him, according to the department. 

One of the 15-year-old boys died at the scene, while the other 15-year-old and the 14-year-old were flown to Regions Hospital for what are described by police as serious injuries. 

"I woke up about 2:37 in the morning, and I was just sick to my stomach. Something just was not right. I kept texting him, 'What's wrong? where are you?'" said Terra Balow, the mother of 15-year-old Connor.

She says her son was severely injured, and is currently hospitalized at Gillette Children's in St. Paul.

"I just don't know if my son is going to make it. And I pray, I've been praying and asking God to please spare my son," said Balow.

Connor did show some signs of improvement on Sunday. He is coherent and talking to his family. 

"[Connor] just found out that Jax passed away, his best friend, and now he'll have to deal with that," said Balow. "It was on [Connor's] birthday, and he was a good boy. We don't know all what happened, but what happened is a very bad tragedy and these boys were not bad children." 

Police add the 4-Runner's driver was also flown to Regions Hospital for what they say are life-threatening injuries. Police say he later died from his injuries. The 18-year-old in the 4-Runner was brought to Hennepin Healthcare by ambulance.  

No other details about the extent of injuries or the teens' conditions were immediately available. The names of the other teens involved haven't been released. 

Connor's friend, Caryss Buhler, says a tragedy like this impacts everyone in a small town.

"Our whole community is struggling because it's so hard for all of us to just grasp the lives that were lost," said Buhler.

Lakes Area police say alcohol may have been a factor due to it being found at the crash scene. The Minnesota State Patrol will be reconstructing the crash, while the Lakes Area Police Department is leading the investigation. 

A GoFundMe account was set up to help Connor's family with medical bills and long recovery ahead.
