Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan was still in critical condition but more responsive on Sunday after suffering injuries including a broken leg and nose and several broken ribs in a New Jersey highway crash.  Morgan and two other people traveling with him in a limo bus were injured in the crash with a truck that also killed comedian James McNair on Saturday.  "While Tracy remains in critical condition, he has been more responsive today, which is an incredibly encouraging sign," his spokesman, Lewis Kay, said in a statement. "We expect him to remain in the hospital for several weeks. His family is tremendously overwhelmed and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support from his fans."  Two other men remained in critical condition in a New Brunswick hospital. The driver and occupant of the passenger seat of Morgan's vehicle were unhurt.  The driver, Tyrone Gale, told ABC News: "I climbed around and heard Tracy screaming for help. I climbed up on the body of the limo bus … but I couldn't reach them."  A truck driver was charged on Saturday for causing the six-vehicle freeway crash. Kevin Roper, 35, of Jonesboro, Georgia, is charged with one count of death by auto and four counts of assault by auto.  In a statement released on Saturday, Walmart president Bill Simon said a Walmart truck was involved in the accident and that the company "will take full responsibility" if authorities determine its truck caused the crash.  "We're praying for the family and friends of the passenger who lost his life in the terrible accident," the statement said.  Accompanied by his lawyer, Roper turned himself in to New Jersey police. He was released on $50,000 bail on Saturday night, said Walmart spokesman David Tovar on Sunday.  The National Transportation Safety Board said it was working with state police on issues related to commercial trucking and limousine safety.  Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock star Morgan, comedian Ardie Fuqua Jr and another passenger, Jeffrey Millea, were flown to Robert Wood Johnson Hospital. Another comedian, Harris Stanton, was treated at the scene and released.  Middlesex County prosecutors said the crash, which occurred at around 1am on Saturday morning on the New Jersey Turnpike, was caused when a tractor-trailer rammed into a limousine bus that was driving Morgan, McNair and two other men to New York from a concert in Delaware.  The tractor-trailer driver apparently failed to slow for traffic and swerved to avoid a crash, state police sergeant first class Greg Williams told reporters. The vehicle crashed into the back of the Mercedes limo bus, prompting a chain-reaction crash with a second tractor-trailer, an SUV and two cars.  Morgan's vehicle overturned, killing McNair.  Morgan's ex-wife, Sabina Morgan, told the New York Daily News McNair had been a mentor to the comedian, “one of the first that took Tracy under his wing”.  Morgan appeared on Saturday Night Live from 1996 to 2003, and on the hit NBC sitcom 30 Rock from 2006 to its close in 2013, receiving a 2009 Emmy nomination for best supporting actor.
