Renner is recovering in the intensive care unit after undergoing surgery for the significant injuries he sustained in a snowplow accident, including “blunt chest damage and orthopedic problems,” according to his spokesperson.
Monday evening, the 51-year-old “Avengers” star was in the intensive care unit in “serious but stable condition,” CNN reported, citing a representative named Samantha Mast.
Mast said in a statement, “Jeremy’s family would like to thank the extraordinary doctors and nurses caring for him, Truckee Meadows Fire and Rescue, the Washoe County Sheriff, Reno City Mayor Hillary Schieve, and the Carano and Murdock families.”
She said, “They are also really thrilled and grateful for the outpouring of love and support from his admirers.”
According to a source close to the “Hawkeye” star, he has undergone two surgeries to date.
Monday evening, Jeremy Renner was in the intensive care unit in “critical but stable condition,” according to his representative.
Sunday, after a heavy snowstorm, Renner was using his Kassbohrer PistenBully snow plow to carve a route out of his five-bedroom Mt. Rose-Ski home in Nevada.
Apparently, the machine’s safety mechanism failed, and the big plow rolled over the two-time Oscar nominee’s leg.
Sunday morning at 10 a.m., he was taken to a hospital near Reno after a neighbor placed a tourniquet to his crushed leg to halt the bleeding.
Renner has posted multiple times on Instagram about clearing snow around his Nevada house with his Kassbohrer PistenBully snow plow.
The Sheriff’s Office did not specify how the accident occurred, but its Major Accident Investigation Team is conducting an investigation.
According to the National Weather Service, between December 31 and January 1, the Reno region received 6 to 12 inches of snow at elevations below 5,000 feet and up to 18 inches at higher elevations.
The actor is most recognized for his roles as Hawkeye in many Marvel Cinematic Universe films and as Mayor of Kingstown on Paramount+.
