The Starz series “Power” has shut down production after an on-set accident led to the death of a production assistant early Monday morning.
Pedro Jimenez was setting up traffic cones for a shoot in Brooklyn at approximately 4:30 Am ET when he was struck by an SUV. He was later pronounced dead at a local hospital.
“We are deeply saddened by the loss of one of the members of our ‘Power’ family,” a Starz spokesperson said in a statement. “Our thoughts are with Mr. Jimenez’ family as we work to fully understand what has happened.”
It is unknown at this time precisely how long the production shut down will last. “Power” is currently in production on its sixth season.
