Tracy Morgan is in critical but stable condition; despite rumors to the contrary, his leg was not amputated, his rep tells Us Weekly in a statement

Several days after a massive, six-car accident in Cranbury, NJ that killed comic James McNair and seriously injured others, Tracy Morgan "remains in critical but stable condition," his rep told Us Weekly in a statement late Monday, June 9. Convalescing at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, Morgan has fiancee Megan "at his side," adds the rep, who stresses that rumors about the beloved comic's healthincluding talk of an amputationshouldn't be taken at face value.

"The concern for his well-being has been overwhelming, but Megan Wollover is respectfully asking that the media await official word through these channels before speculating (mostly inaccurately) on his condition," the rep continues. "Rumors about amputating his leg are completely fabricated. As we shared yesterday, Tracy had surgery on his broken leg."
