Police say Macaulay Culkin's sister, Dakota, died after she stepped in front of a car in west Los Angeles.
Police spokesman Richard French said Dakota Culkin was struck Tuesday night after she stepped into the street. She suffered serious head injuries and died a day later at a Los Angeles hospital.
French said there is no criminal investigation.
The driver stopped and tried to help the 29-year-old, police said. Officers determined the motorist was not drunk and followed all laws.
Macaulay Culkin's spokeswoman, Michelle Bega, said it was a "terrible tragic accident" and the family had no further comment.
The 28-year-old actor starred in the "Home Alone" films.

Aniston's Wry Remarks
Jennifer Aniston wears a tie - and nothing else - on the January cover of GQ magazine.
The 39-year-old actress strips down and shows off her toned body next to the headline: "Is it just us or is Jennifer Aniston getting hotter?"
Joking about the relentless media coverage of herself, ex-husband Brad Pitt and Pitt's partner Angelina Jolie, Aniston tells the magazine: "The funny thing is that people don't realize we all go away to the Hamptons on the weekends."
Not exactly. Says Aniston: "But can you imagine? That'd be hysterical: I've got Zahara on my hip, and Knox ..."
As for Jolie's past remarks about falling for Pitt on the set of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," Aniston says: "No daggers through the heart. I laugh. Am I surprised? ... Considering the source, nothing surprises me."
