“They got a pulse and they did revive her. She was not DOA when it occurred,” the publicist told Us. “She was there basically 24 hours before she transitioned. They didn’t think she would make it to the morning, so we had a few more hours with her than could have happened. She passed away at 10:30 p.m. EST at Grady Memorial Hospital.”

The other driver allegedly fled the scene and has not been arrested, according to Dixson.
