Jeremy Renner Was Crushed By A Snow Plow
On January 1, the public was informed that the marvel actor had been crushed by his 14,330 pounds snow plow. The incident occurred in Renner's Tahoe home while he attempted to stop the snow from capturing a family member's car.
Instead, Renner's snow plow ran him over, giving him grave injuries. In one day, the actor had to undergo two surgeries to ease the damage done by the large snow removal equipment. The snow plow is assumed to be either a Sno-Cat or a PistenBully.
