      I hope he has a speedy and full recovery. Not ready to lose "Easy Reader" that's for sure.

        Statement from Ben Williams, Mississippi Highway patrol sergeant:

        “Mr. Freeman was involved in an accident around 11:30pm yesterday. Mr. Freeman was driving a 1997 Nissan Maxima. The vehicle was traveling eastbound on Mississippi highway 32 in Tallahatchie County. The vehicle ran off the edge of the road and began to flip several times. Mr. Freeman and the passenger involved were wearing seatbelts. The passenger was Demaris Meyer [female.] Mr. Freeman was airlifted to the MED in Memphis.”

        “The doors were jammed on the vehicle from the rolling and flipping. We had to break the doors open with the jaws of life to extract him. There’s no suspicion that alcohol or drugs were involved, according to the investigating officer. It would be speculation on my behalf to say he fell asleep at the wheel. This was a rural road. We just don’t know what happened to cause him to run off the road.”

        “He was conscious and not disoriented. I’m pretty sure he was answering questions from the arresting officer.”

          I know that this is not the case but when i first read this i thought you were rejoicing over the fact he had an accident.

                    I hope he's ok. He seems like a genuinely cool guy and great actor.

                    How long until the Internet rumors of a "Dark Knight" curse start poppping up?

                      Freeman is a great actor ---------- Loved him in Shawshank and Glory ......

                      But if the crash was his fault, I hope everyone don't just excuse him without an investigation.

                      If so, you all put actors ahead of us regular people.

                        I thought the same thing. With the death of the stunt drive, Ledger, Bale's arrest and allegations, and now this. But it appears that Freeman is going to be okay. He does have a broken arm and requires surgery, though.

                            Now that Mr Freeman seems to be ok...we can now joke a little...


                            He should've slowed down like Miss Daisy told 'em
