Mystery Author The Rev. Andrew M. Greeley Critically Injured

Several Chicago area newspapers including the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun-Times are reporting that priest and bestselling mystery author Andrew M. Greeley is in critical condition after suffering head injuries from a fall. Rev. Greeley, 80, was exiting a taxi about 3:30 p.m. Friday at the Rosemont CTA Blue Line station when his clothing got stuck on the door as the driver pulled away, according to a Rosemont police spokesman.
