Ben Woolf, the actor from 'American Horror Story

The actor had gotten clipped in the head by the side view mirror of an SUV as he was crossing a street in Hollywood, and a source said that Woolf, who played Meep on the hit show, died from a stroke, TMZ.com reported.

The driver was not arrested or ticketed because it was Woolf who was recklessly crossing the roadway.

The actor had been heavily sedated at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center since the accident last week, and though the doctors upgraded his condition to stable, it didn't help.

Woolf's family said that that were overwhelmed by the love and support from all over the world. His organs are being donated and will help about 50 people, and the family members are planning a memorial service in Santa Barbara.
