Marvel Avengers star Jeremy Renner has second surgery for 'extensive' injuries as police investigation launched

Hollywood star Jeremy Renner remains in intensive care after undergoing two surgeries following an horrific snow plowing incident on New Year's Day. The Marvel Avengers actor suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries, and remains in a critical but stable condition, reports CNN.

The Washoe County Sheriff’s Office in Nevada has said that it is investigating the incident. Renner, who plays Hawkeye in the Marvel movie and TV franchises, was reportedly attempting to clear a path while plowing his driveway to his five-bedroom Lake Tahoe Ranch in Nevada following blizzard conditions in the US.

Unconfirmed reports suggest a Snowcat plowing ran over one of Renner's legs, and he was losing a lot of blood. TMZ reports that one of his neighbors, a doctor, potentially saved the actor's life by using a tourniquet to stem the blood flow until paramedics arrived.
