Comedian Tracy Morgan is in critical condition following an accident involving the limo bus he was riding in. The accident also involved several other vehicles.
Another passenger on the limo bus was killed in the accident when two tractor-trailers and three other vehicles crashed at around 1 a.m. on Saturday morning on the New Jersey Turnpike near Cranberry Township.
According to a statement from Gregory Williams, a New Jersey State Police spokesman, “The limo bus is the only vehicle that overturned. Looks like one of the tractor-trailers may have rear-ended that limo bus, but that’s preliminary at this point.”
Williams also said he did not believe alcohol played a role in the accident, but said that is part of the investigation.
Six other people besides Morgan were injured, according to Williams.
Morgan was transported to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Center in New Brunswick, New Jersey where he remains in critical condition.
The star of “Saturday Night Live” and “30 Rock” had just completed a show in Delaware and was on his way home at the time of the crash.
