A few days after Katharine McPhee canceled a few of her and husband David Foster's joint concerts due to the unexpected death of their nanny, more details regarding the tragedy have been revealed.

According to a report, Yadira Calito died while visiting the Hamer Toyota dealership in San Fernando Valley, where an 84-year-old woman behind the wheel of a Toyota RAV4 crashed into the waiting area.

Calito was pinned under the car and dragged for 20 feet before she was freed. She was in critical condition upon arriving at the hospital, where she later succumbed to her injuries. Two Toyota employees were also hurt but are expected to make a full recovery.

The driver, who wasn't arrested, said she hit the gas pedal instead of the brakes when her car was in the service driveway.

"Please know how sorry I am and how much I wish to return one day and perform for you all," the American Idol alum added. "Love Katharine."
