A young man is in critical condition after a violent crash on Oahu's H2 freeway, which is bad news for him and his family as he fights for his life.

The crash happened early Monday morning near Waipio. Police say his car hit a concrete barrier, which caused a tire to blow out.

He then lost control, and the car left the roadway, went airborne, and landed in the grassy median.

Police have not yet determined what caused him to hit the barrier in the first place.

Outlook: Investigators are still working to determine the cause of the crash, and the man's condition remains serious.
