An Avengers stunt actor was killed in a terrifying car crash along with three of his children, while one child remains in hospital with severe injuries.

Taraja Ramsess, who appeared in the Avengers and Black Panther films, died instantly when his pickup truck collided with a tractor-trailer in Georgia on Halloween night. His newborn baby Fugibo Ramsess and 13-year-old daughter Sundari Ramsess were also killed immediately on impact.

His son, 10-year-old Kisasi, and a three-year-old girl were taken to the hospital in critical condition, where Kisasi sadly died of his injuries on Sunday. Authorities have said the girl is in a serious but stable condition.

According to an investigation, Taraja took an exit ramp where the tractor-trailer was broken down in the left lane, when they collided. Tributes have been pouring in for the beloved performer and his family and a GoFundMe page has been set up on behalf of his mother, Akili Ramsess.

The fundraiser has already raised more than $80,000 (£64,000). A tribute to 10-year-old Kisasi on the page said: "Kisasi - or 'Sauce the Boss' - brought so much joy to the lives of so many, was surrounded by loving family members every moment he spent in the hospital. Please continue to wrap your arms around Akili and her family."

It continued: "I know you share our feelings that this devastating loss is unfathomable." Taraja's mother took to Instagram to share her own tribute.

Akili said: "All who knew and met him know how special Taraja was. He had a deep capacity for love and loved his children more than all. He loved his martial arts, motorcycles and all things related to filmmaking.

"He a very droll yet wicked sense of humor & yet could be as cornball corny as can be. Sundari, Sunny as she was called, also reflected that special light. Funny & loved to dance. Oh God! I can't believe they're gone!"

Taraja did stunts for Marvel's Black Panther and Avengers: Endgame. Additionally, his stunt work was featured in Avengers: Infinity War, The Suicide Squad, Atlanta and Creed III. He also often worked as a set dresser on over 43 projects, including The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Walking Dead and The Vampire Diaries.
