File Photo by Patrick Rideaux/UPI | License Photo Jan. 3 (UPI) -- Film and TV star Jeremy Renner was helping a stranded motorist when he was seriously injured by his own snow plow on New Year's Day, Reno Mayor Hillary Schieve said. "He was helping someone stranded in the snow," Schieve told the Reno Gazette Journal Monday night. "He is always helping others," she said. "He's always calling and saying, 'Hey Mayor, what do you need?'" Schieve added the 51-year-old Hawkeye and Mayor of Kingstown star doesn't usually publicize his good deeds. Renner was hospitalized in critical but stable condition in an intensive care unit Sunday morning after he suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries in the incident near his home on Mt. Rose Highway, about 25 minutes from downtown Reno. His representative said hours later that he had undergone surgery. Renner's Avengers co-star Mark Ruffalo showed his support for Renner on Instagram. "Prayers up for our brother @jeremyrenner on a full and speedy recovery," Ruffalo said. "Please send healing goodness his way." The actor is also known for his roles in Wind River, The Hurt Locker and American Hustle. He has a 9-year-old daughter.
That's gotta be insult to injury for a "movie star". You get in a horrible accident, almost lose your life, and are confronted by proof you aren't even a big enough star to make the front page. Seems like a good guy. Hope he recovers. He can always branch out. The path has been laid out before him by Rian Johnson:
Damn. Trying to be a good samaritan. I hope he makes a full recovery and gets a medal. ******* bbs mode: This wouldn't have happened to a superpowered Avenger.
Have you been out to Reno? When it snows hard, it’s pretty bad. Did he put that snow plower in neutral? Or forget to put on the brakes ? remember that dude who played Checkov on the new Star Trek died cause his Jeep backed into him
America breh I got stuck in a snowstorm there , it sucked, they got people on the side of the road offering to put chains on your tires Kinda like people in Houston trying to wash your windshields Except it’s like 10 degrees and they charge more
