Camryn Magness, a singer who toured with One Direction, was killed in an electric scooter crash in Miami Beach, officials said.
Miami Beach Police said Magness was a passenger on the scooter when it collided with a pedestrian in the area of the Venetian Causeway and East San Marino Drive shortly before 8 p.m. on Dec. 5.
Magness, the male who was driving the scooter, and the pedestrian, all suffered significant injuries and were taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Center, police said.
The 26-year-old singer died from her injuries at the hospital.
Her passing was announced on her Facebook page on Tuesday.
“Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of our beloved Camryn, a radiant force whose voice, coy, and bright spirit touched so many,” said the post, which was accompanied by a video if the singer scuba diving. “Whether beneath the waves or on stage, she met life with fearless energy and boundless kindness. In the quiet between waves, her memory will surface—bright, bold, unforgotten. Rest in endless blue, our sweet girl. You are deeply loved and forever cherished. Please keep her family and friends in prayer as they navigate this difficult time. Camryn will live on in our hearts forever.”
