NEW YORK
Kianna Underwood, a former child star on the Nickelodeon sketch comedy series “All That,” was killed Friday in a hit-and-run in Brooklyn. She was 33.
According to the New York Police Department, Underwood was crossing an intersection in the Brownsville neighborhood when she was struck by a black Ford Explorer SUV.
While she lay in the street, a second vehicle—a black and gray sedan—hit her. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Both drivers fled and have not been identified. The investigation is ongoing.
Underwood rose to prominence in 2005 with her seven-episode run on the popular children’s show “All That,” which launched the careers of stars like Nick Cannon, Kenan Thompson, and Amanda Bynes.
Prior to that, she voiced the character Fuschia Glover on the Nick Jr. series “Little Bill” from 1999 to 2004.
She also performed as Little Inez on the first national tour of “Hairspray.” “All That” remained her final credited role.
