AP) LOS ANGELES Authorities say R&B singer Brandy was involved in a four-car freeway crash in December in Los Angeles that left a 38-year-old woman dead.

The cause of the mishap is under investigation. No arrests have been made.

The 27-year-old actress-singer, whose real name is Brandy Norwood, was driving a 2007 Land Rover on the 405 Freeway on Dec. 30, when the collision occurred.

According to a California Highway Patrol report, she failed to slow down and struck the back of a 2005 Honda at about 65 miles per hour. The Honda, driven by Awatef Aboudihaj, hit another vehicle, then slid sideways before it struck a center divider. The Honda was then hit by an oncoming car.

A coroner's spokesman says Aboudihaj was taken to a hospital where she died of blunt force injuries.
