崔西·摩根车祸后仍未康复

    Comedian Tracy Morgan is a man of many laughs, but his lawyer said yesterday that despite Internet rumors, Morgan is “still struggling” and “fighting hard” two months after a car crash that left him in critical condition.

    The “30 Rock” and former “Saturday Night Live” star was seriously injured in June after a Walmart truck slammed into the limo occupied by Morgan and four others on the New Jersey Turnpike. The collision killed Morgan’s longtime friend comedian James McNair and injured the other passengers. Morgan was hospitalized with broken ribs, a broken nose, a broken femur* and a broken leg.

    Morgan’s attorney, Benedict Morelli, told NBC’s “Today” show, “The interesting thing is that at the beginning the Internet was saying that he (Tracy Morgan) was dead. ... Then they said that they amputated his leg. Now it’s out that he’s doing great. None of those things are true or accurate.”

    Morelli added that if the case went to trial, he intended to show that it is the culture of Walmart to have their drivers work more than 14-hour shifts — the legal limit for drivers.
