Oscar winner Morgan Freeman was in serious condition at a Memphis, Tennessee hospital after having a car accident late Sunday night. Doctors say that Freeman, 71, suffered several fractures and other injuries after his car careened off a road, but that none of the injuries were life threatening.

Authorities confirmed that Freeman was involved in an accident in Tallahatchie County, Mississippi, about 100 miles south of Memphis. Police said that he was driving a Nissan Maxima when the vehicle veered off a rural highway and flipped several times. Demaris Meyer, the owner of the car, was also in the vehicle at the time of the accident. There is no word on her condition, but both occupants were reported to have been wearing seat belts.

Police say there is no indication that alcohol or drugs were a factor.

Freeman won an Academy Award for best supporting actor in 2005 for his role in the gritty boxing film "Million Dollar Baby," and was nominated for Oscars three other times, for the movies "Street Smart," "Driving Miss Daisy" and "The Shawshank Redemption."
