Hollywood actor Jeremy Renner has been hospitalized in a “stable but critical” condition after a weather-related accident involving a snow plow.
According to reports, the 51-year-old was airlifted to hospital after the incident, said to have occurred while he was “plowing snow”.
“We can confirm Jeremy is in critical but stable condition with injuries suffered after experiencing a weather related accident while plowing snow earlier today,” the star’s rep confirmed with Variety. “His family is with him and he is receiving excellent care.”
Reports state that Renner has owned a home in Washoe County, Nevada, for several years – an area which experienced heavy snowfall due to a storm on New Year’s eve – though the exact location of Renner’s accident hasn’t been officially confirmed.
