Nickelodeon star Kianna Underwood has passed away at 33 after a tragic accident.
According to Page Six, the All That star was killed by a hit-and-run driver on Friday morning, January 16, in Brooklyn, New York.
The Deputy Commissioner of Public Information confirmed to the outlet that the police received a call about the accident in the Brownsville neighbourhood at around 6:49 am local time.
The statement read, “A preliminary investigation determined a grey vehicle was travelling westbound and struck an unidentified female,” adding that she “sustained severe trauma to the head and body.”
The emergency medical service pronounced Underwood deceased on the scene.
The investigation is underway; however, no arrests have been made after the driver “did not remain on scene.”
The New Yorker who began her acting career as a child star at the age of seven became known after Nickelodeon gave her a big break in 2005 in the 10th season of its show named All That, starring Amanda Bynes, Nick Cannon and Kenan Thompson.
Underwood played Tanessha Labelle in the 1999 limited theatrical release comedy film The 24 Hour Woman, which premiered at Sundance and appeared in the 2003 hip-hop satire Death of a Dynasty, starring Kevin Hart.
She also voiced Fuchsia in the Nick Jr. show Little Bill and spent a year on the national tour of Hairspray as Little Inez.
After a short television career, Underwood returned to New York and started living a private life until her video surfaced in 2023, in which she appeared to be struggling.
