NYPD Probes Brooklyn Hit-and-Run That Killed Former Nickelodeon Actor Kianna Underwood

Investigators are reviewing surveillance along with a circulating clip after both drivers fled, police say.

Overview

  • Underwood, 33, was first hit by a black Ford Explorer SUV and then struck again by a gray-and-black sedan before being pronounced dead at the scene, according to the NYPD.
  • The collision occurred around 6:50 a.m. on Jan. 16 at a Brownsville intersection in Brooklyn, as she was crossing the street.
  • Both motorists left the scene and have not been identified as the NYPD collision unit continues its investigation and asks the public for tips.
  • A graphic video purporting to show the incident is circulating online; police have not authenticated it and are reviewing nearby camera footage.
  • Underwood appeared in seven episodes of Nickelodeon’s All That and voiced Fuchsia Glover on Little Bill, and her father later faulted bystanders in a now-deleted post for recording instead of helping.
