Jeremy Renner is "hospitalized in critical but stable condition with injuries suffered after experiencing a weather related accident while plowing snow,"

Anybody know what happened?
Prayers for a full & speedy recovery

I heard that on the radio today, just don't know who he is or why it makes the news.

Renner is an actor that I really like. He starred in the Bourne Legacy and is in Mayor of Kingstown which I just watched and am waiting on the next season. I sure hope he is okay. If he is blowing or plwing snow on a tractor that moves him a notch higher on my favorite list. I like him because you never hear any of the rhetoric out of him that you hear from other actors.

The area he was doing snow removal in received about 4 ft of new snow. We imagine he may have driven off the road or got involved in a mechanical accident. Just curious as to what happened.

Heard on CBS and ABC News this evening that Renner's snowcat plow reportedly ran over his leg while he was off it clearing snow.

Renner was in "The Hurt Locker", Hawkey in Marvel movies, starred in " Wind River" (Great Movie) and others. He is a great actor IMO.

Jeremy Renner is now out of surgery after suffering blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries in a weather-related accident. He remains in the intensive care unit in “critical but stable condition,” according to his representation.

Ouch! Hope it heals up good.

Oh boy ! I read only blunt force chest injury and broken bones requiring a life flight.

It did not sound as if he was buckled in when it rolled over and he was thrown from the cab.

There's a picture of him in what appears to be an ambulance sitting up with some cuts to his face as well. Not sure if it's actually from this incident.

Honestly, I have more respect for him as a human to see he's out there getting stuff done. Prayers out for recovery.
