Ben Woolf, the actor who played fan favorite “Meep” on American Horror Story: Freak Show — in addition to the Infantata on the first season of American Horror Story — is in critical condition after an accident involving a car on Thursday night in Hollywood. TMZ reports:

Law enforcement sources tell us … the 4’4″ actor — who plays Meep and was heavily featured in the current season of the show — was struck in the head by the mirror of a passing SUV as he crossed a Hollywood street. He was rushed to a nearby hospital.

TMZ also reported that the driver was not found at fault because Woolf was jaywalking when he was struck, so this was really just an unfortunately-timed incident. We hope he makes a full recovery.

Woolf was featured in this FX featurette in tandem with his involvement in last season of American Horror Story, if you’d like to learn more about the actor:
