Police did not immediately charge the driver, who remained at the scene after the accident.

"I can only describe Wenne Davis as a bright light," Davis' agent Jamie Harris tells EW in a statement. "She had a huge love for New York, for acting, for her colleagues at JFK and, most of all, her family and her circle of friends (which was also huge). She was someone for whom friendliness and kindness were not what she did but more who she was as a person."

Harris goes on to say that "many of her friends in the past few days ... spoke of her generous spirit and love of life," and that she will be greatly missed "by all who knew and loved her."

Harris added: "We all agree that she had much more to do in her career as an actor and her life. Literally, no one I've spoken to can believe that she's no longer with us."
