not serious

Morgan Freeman's business partner, Bill Lucketts, unexpectedly spoke to the press outside the hospital where Morgan is being treated after his car crash last night.

Bill says Morgan wanted him to clear up any rumors about his condition, which is considered "serious," because he's still in intensive care and will require surgery.

According to Bill, Morgan fractured his left elbow and has opted to have surgery. The surgery will take place tonight or tomorrow afternoon. He also said the actor has neck and shoulder injuries, but that they are not serious.

The accident occurred as Morgan was on his way home from Bill's house last night, as he's back in his hometown resting between projects. Bill says they believe it was a mechanical issue with the car that caused the crash.

He went on to say that his friend's injuries will take about three to four months to heal, adding that Morgan's in good spirits -- speaking with visitors, taking phone calls and answering emails.
