I noted that when Morgan Freeman’s car accident took place, he was riding with a female “friend.”
Now, as Paul Harvey would say, the rest of the story:
 Days after he was involved in a serious car accident, a friend of “Dark Knight” star Morgan Freeman confirmed to Access Hollywood that the actor is getting a divorce. Freeman and his wife of 24-years, costumer Myrna Colley-Lee, “are involved in a divorce action,” the actor’s Mississippi-based attorney and business partner Bill Luckett told Access Hollywood. “And for legal and practical purposes, (Freeman and Colley-Lee) have been separated since December of 2007.”
Freeman was involved in an accident late Sunday night, during which the car he was driving flipped end-over-end. The actor and his female passenger, identified as Demaris Meyer, were driving on Mississippi Highway 32 in a rural area of Tallahatchie County at 11:30 p.m. on Sunday evening, when Freeman’s car went off the right side of the road and flipped over. Freeman and Meyer, who has been described as the actor’s friend, were on the way to Freeman’s home when the accident occurred.
A shame. But that’s Hollywood, I guess.

 CNN BREAKING: “Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman is in serious condition after a car accident in Mississippi, according to hospital officials.”
Here’s AP’s preliminary report:
Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman has been injured in car accident in Mississippi and is in a hospital in Memphis. Regional Medical Center spokeswoman Kathy Stringer says Freeman is in serious condition.
The hospital, commonly known as The Med, is an acute-care teaching facility that serves patients within 150 miles of Memphis.
More details as they become available.
Freeman is 71 years old but it sounds like they’ve taken him to the right facility.
UPDATE: The Press Association:
Mississippi state troopers told showbiz website TMZ.com that Freeman was involved in the crash at around 11.30pm local time on Sunday (5.30am BST), north of the small town of Ruleville. He was airlifted from the accident scene to the hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, where he is being treated.
State troopers told TMZ.com that the Oscar-winning actor was talking before he was taken to the hospital.
That much is encouraging.
More from NPR:
Clay McFerrin, editor of Sun Sentinel in Charleston, said he arrived at the accident scene on Mississippi Highway 32 soon after it happened about 4 miles west of Charleston, not far from where Freeman owns a home with his wife.
McFerrin said it appeared that Freeman’s car was airborne went it left the highway and landed in a ditch.
“They had to use the jaws of life to extract him from the vehicle,” McFerrin said. “He was lucid, conscious. He was talking, joking with some of the rescue workers at one point.” McFerrin said bystanders converged on the scene trying to get a glimpse of the actor. When one person tried to snap a photo with a cell phone camera, Freeman joked, “no freebies, no freebies,” McFerrin said.
