'Power': 50 Cent offers condolences for killed production member

Dec. 11 (UPI) -- Power star and executive producer Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson offered his condolences on Instagram for a production member who was killed while working on the Starz drama.

Pedro Jimenez died on Monday after he was struck by a Ford Explorer while he was placing cones for a parking lane for Power while on location in New York City, the NYPD confirmed to Entertainment Weekly.

Jimenez was pronounced dead at Brooklyn Hospital. The NYPD is still investigating the manner while production on Power has been temporarily shut down out of his respect for Jimenez's family.

"I just learned we lost Pedro Jimenez, a member of the Power production team early this morning," 50 Cent said alongside a completely black image.

"My prayers and condolences are with the entire Jimenez family," he continued.

"We are deeply saddened by the loss of one of the members of our Power family. Our thoughts are with Mr. Jimenez' family as we work to fully understand what has happened," Starz said in a statement.

Power was renewed for a sixth season in March.
