'Dr. Alex Cross' injured in car wreck
Morgan Freeman, who played police forensic psychologist Dr. Alex Cross in "Along Came a Spider" and homicide Lt. William Somerest in "Seven," was injured in a car wreck over the weekend.Freeman, 71, who owns a home in Mississippi, was reported in serious condition.
Mississippi Highway Patrol officials said Freeman's car left a road and flipped over several times four miles west of Charleston.
Police said the car went airborne and landed in a ditch. Firefighters had to use the jaws of life to cut him from the car.
He was lucid and joking with the rescuers.
He's currently in Batman.
I like those Alex Cross books and movies. Freeman also played Cross in "Kiss the Girls."
