Actor Morgan Freeman Injured in Car Accident

I'm sorry to hear this:
On Monday, actor Morgan Freeman was injured in a car accident in Mississippi, TMZ.com reported.

The accident occurred around 11:30 p.m. near the small town of Ruleville. Freeman, 71, was airlifted from the scene to a hospital in Memphis, Tenn.
The “Dark Knight” star was accompanied by an unknown female, TMZ reported. Her condition is unknown.

MyFoxMemphis has learned from Freeman's close friend and business partner, Bill Luckett, that he is in "Fair" condition.

Alcohol is not believed to be a factor in the accident.

Freeman is an Academy Award-winning actor, film director and narrator.

I saw The Dark Knight on Saturday with my kids, and in the last couple of weeks saw Freeman in Batman Begins, Bruce Almighty and Evan Almighty. He's a very fine actor and seems like a genuinely good guy. After seeing him in the Almighty films, you almost believe God might be somebody just like him.

I wish him a speedy recovery.
