Jeremy Renner was rushed to the hospital on Sunday (January 1) following a snow plow accident and new reports have revealed how serious the incident was.
The actor, 51, was at his home near Mt. Rose-Ski Tahoe in Nevada when a winter storm hit the area on New Year's Eve leaving 35,000 people without power, per the Reno-Gazette Journal.
The Daily Mail reported that Renner has a love for heavy machinery and uses his own snow plows to clear the paths and roads around his secluded mountain home.
The Marvel star was airlifted to the hospital following an incident involving his snow plow that left him in a "critical but stable" condition.
Speaking to Deadline, a spokesperson for Renner said: "[He is in a] critical but stable condition with injuries suffered after experiencing a weather-related accident while plowing snow earlier today [Sunday]."
Fans of the two-time Oscar nominee were left waiting for an update on his health, and new information has since come to light about the incident.
Speaking to TMZ, a representative of the 51-year-old explained that Renner had suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries, and underwent surgery on Monday.
He remains in a critical but stable condition and is currently being cared for in an intensive care unit. The representative added: "[Renner's family are] tremendously overwhelmed and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support from his fans."
A neighbor of the actor explained to TMZ that Renner was clearing snow when his snow plow, called a Snowcat, reportedly ran over his leg, leaving him with major blood loss.
The report goes on to state that another neighbor, who luckily is a doctor, rushed to the scene where he put the star's leg in a tourniquet while they waited for further medical assistance to arrive.
Co-stars of Renner have been sending their wishes for a speedy recovery, including Hailee Steinfeld who appeared opposite the 51-year-old in the Disney+ series Hawkeye.
She said via Twitter: "I can’t sleep after hearing the news about Jeremy Renner. I’m legit sad & scared. To our partner in crime, our favorite Avenger. Prayers to you and your Family. Really praying for [a] speedy recovery… C’mon Hawkeye! We need you!"
