Jeremy Renner Shares Photo, Update After Getting Run Over By 14,000-LB Snowplow

Actor Jeremy Renner is on the mend after surviving a scary incident over the weekend when a snowplow ran him over and left him in critical condition.

Renner was reportedly operating the snowplow Sunday morning to clear the road for his neighbors near Mt. Rose Highway. When the Hawkeye actor stepped out of the machine, it struck him as it rolled down a downward path.

The Washoe County Sheriff's Office was alerted of the traumatic injury and sent out an airlift to transport Renner to a local hospital. As reported on OutKick, Renner lost an extensive amount of blood from his leg after the snowplow ran it over. One neighbor spotted the ailing Renner and applied a tourniquet in order to quell the loss of blood.
