Pedro Jimenez, who has worked on the show since its 2014 premiere, was fatally struck by a 2006 Ford Explorer in Brooklyn, where filming was supposed to take place.

“We are deeply saddened by the loss of one of the members of our Power family,” a rep for Starz said off of the 63-year-old crew member.
