UPDATE: TMZ has obtained an official statement from Macaulay's rep. "We can officially confirm that the victim is Dakota Culkin. This is a terrible tragic accident. We have no further comment at this time."

We've learned Macaulay Culkin's sister died yesterday after being struck by a car.

Law enforcement sources tell us Dakota Culkin was walking on the west side of Los Angeles Tuesday when she stepped off a curb and was struck by a car. The 29-year-old Culkin was taken to the UCLA Medical Center where she died of her injuries yesterday afternoon.

So far no arrests have been made. The case is under investigation by LAPD.

37. Roger C, you are an insensitive pos. This is a tragedy that is immeasurable for any family to deal with, no matter who it is. I certainly hope you never endure such an unbearable loss. Imagine the pain and anger you would experience if someone made this comment about your family.

You are mindless and juvenile if you think your comment makes you appear cool. You're unconscionable.

38. That's so sad! I hate to be a pessimist but who's going to be the 3rd sibling of a celeb that's going to die? Ruffalo, Culkin....
Right before the holidays too. My heart goes out to the families.
