The woman killed by a hit-and-run driver who dragged her down a Brooklyn block Friday morning has been identified as former Nickelodeon child star Kianna Underwood, law enforcement sources said.

Underwood, 33 – who appeared on the final season of the popular sketch comedy show “All That” in 2005 – was crossing at the intersection of Watkins Street and Pitkin Avenue in Brownsville when she was struck around 6:50 a.m. by a black Ford SUV, the sources said.

Footage obtained by The Post shows the car – which cops say was heading west on Pitkin Avenue – traveling for about a block before Underwood’s body tumbles out from underneath it.
