Gwinnett county police clarified that the death of Natina Reed, member of the R&B group 'Blaque' was not a case of hit-and-run as reported by various outlets but was struck and killed late Friday while standing in a roadway just north of Lilburn.

According to the police spokesman Sgt. Rich Long, police received a call around 10:30 p.m. Friday that a woman had been struck by a red Honda Accord on Lawrenceville Highway (U.S. 29) near Hamilton Road, just north of Lilburn. The spokesman said CPR was performed at the scene and Reed was taken to Gwinnett Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead at 10:59 p.m.

Preliminary online reports said Reed was on her way home from a nearby store at a gas station when she was struck but investigators were still trying to determine why Reed was in the kind of a dark lit area at that time of the night and whether she was crossing or walking alongside the roadway.  

Gwinnett County authorities are seeking information from anyone to help explain the accidental death of the singer. 

Police authorities said other than the driver who called 911 at the scene and a passenger in the car, there did not appear to be any additional witnesses and no charges are pending against the driver and their names are withheld until the investigation is finished.

Reed, a protege of TLC's Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes also starred in the 2000 cheerleading movie "Bring It On" with Williams and Shamari-DeVoe. The New York City native is survived by a 10-year-old son, Tren Brown, from a relationship with rapper Kurupt. Sunday would have been her 33rd birthday.

Fellow Blacque members Brandi Williams and Shamari Fears-DeVoe reacted to her death in Tweets Saturday. 

Brandi Williams tweeted, "Last night the world was changed forever, life will never be the same....she was my sister." 

While Shamari Fears-DeVoe tweeted, "My world as I know it has forever changed. Until we meet again, may you find comfort in the arms of an angel. I love you Natina."

Multiple messages were posted on Twitter expressing condolences, including those from Def Jam co-founder Russell Simmons and V103 personality Egypt Sherrod.

Blaque - which stands for Believing, Live, Achieving, Quest, Unity, Everything -is best known for their 1999 hits, "808" and "Bring it All to Me." Their last radio presence, "I'm Good," stalled at No. 95 on the Billboard R&B chart in 2004.
