Devastating details revealed about death of Godzilla vs Kong child star Kaylee Hottle

More details have emerged after a car accident claimed the life of teenage actor Kaylee Hottle yesterday.

The deaf actress, who featured in the Godzilla vs Kong film series, was involved in a fatal single vehicle accident on Tuesday 21 July and tragically passed away while on the way to the hospital.

Her father Joshua Hottle, shared the news to TMZ and in a 23-minute emotional Facebook livestream where he confirmed in ASL (American Sign Language) that she had died at the age of 18.

I am taking a flight that I never would like to take," he said as he prepared to fly from Texas to Maryland to claim his daughter's body.

Now, audio footage obtained by Page Six has revealed a heartbreaking detail about the crash and the immediate aftermath, as first responders desperately searched for someone proficient in sign language as they attempted to communicate with Hottle.

In the audio, officials can be heard saying: "If anybody has access to the interpreter app on the phones, can you please start this way? Because we need a sign language interpreter."

The Frederick County Sheriff, Fire and EMS dispatch audio also revealed that Hottle was 'unconscious' when she was first discovered as the responders worked to assess everyone involved in the crash.

However, while Hottle's injuries would prove to be fatal, the 19-year-old driver was transported to hospital with injuries which were said to be non life-threatening, while another passenger declined treatment at the scene.

Police said the vehicle 'traveled off the right side of the two-lane roadway and struck a culvert', adding 'excessive speed is believed to be a contributing factor'.

First responders in the audio noted the 'heavy front-end damage' and suggested that the car had travelled roughly 10 feet off the roadway and into a culvert.

The police statement added: "Hottle was transported from the scene to an area trauma center, where she was later pronounced deceased.

"The crash remains under investigation by the Frederick County Sheriff's Office Traffic Unit. Anyone who witnessed the collision or has information related to this investigation is asked to contact Dfc. Rose at 301-600-1046."

The audio also reveals that another individual, who is presumed to be the driver, had asked to be seen by medics after complaining of 'rib pain'.

After Hottle sadly passed away en route to the hospital, her father was called and given the terrible news.

She had made her acting debut in the Godzilla vs. Kong 2021 release, starring alongside Millie Bobby Brown and Alexander Skarsgård, who learned sign language so that he could properly communicate with her.

The actress then reprised her role in the 2024 sequel, while also playing a part in the 2021 Magnum P.I reboot.

Texas School for the Deaf in Austin, where she attended, said in a tribute on social media: “It is with profound sadness that we share the heartbreaking news that one of our TSD seniors, Kaylee Hottle, tragically passed away yesterday in a car accident in Frederick, Maryland.

“Our hearts are with Kaylee’s family, friends, classmates, and everyone who knew and loved her during this incredibly difficult time.”
