One of the three adults was transported to Memorial Hospital in North Conway, where he was pronounced dead, according to state police. The two other adults, one male and one female, were flown to Maine Medical Center in severe condition.

The man who died was identified Tuesday as Kevin Sargent, a 44-year-old from Albany, New Hampshire, troopers said.

Authorities said a preliminary investigation has shown that none of the three adults were wearing their seatbelts at the time of the crash, which occurred as the Tahoe was traveling southbound on Route 16.

The roadway surrounding the accident was closed down, state police said. It is unclear how many vehicles were involved in the crash.

The crash remains under investigation by New Hampshire State Police.
