Via Reuters:Freeman, 71, was airlifted late on Sunday night to a Memphis, Tennessee, hospital, about 100 miles from the accident scene, which is near a home he keeps in Charleston, Mississippi.
"The vehicle went off the edge of the road and flipped several times," Mississippi Highway Patrol Sgt. Ben Williams said. No other car was involved in the accident.
From the direction Freeman was traveling, he appeared to be headed toward his home, Williams said.
Williams said it was "possible" that Freeman, who co-stars in the current blockbuster Batman movie the "Dark Knight," had fallen asleep at the wheel, but he added that authorities had ruled out alcohol as a factor in the wreck.
Freeman was conscious and talking to arriving officers afterward, Williams said, adding that no citation had been issued in the accident.
Via LA Times:
According to a source very close to the "Dark Knight" star, Morgan Freeman is "resting comfortably in the hospital and is on medication for the pain."
"He broke his shoulder and arm, but he's doing OK. He's already laughing and joking around with the nurses."
Thank God he's OK.
