Police Report States Jeremy Renner was Rescuing Nephew from being Hit by Snowplow

Actor Jeremy Renner was critically injured recently while trying to stop his snow removal tractor from sliding into his nephew. According to the now-released Nevada Sheriff’s report, Renner was pulled underneath the vehicle and crushed.

Failure to engage the vehicle’s parking brake allowed it to begin a sideways slide after Renner had used the vehicle to pull his nephew’s truck out of the snow. “The Pistenbully snow groomer began sliding, causing Renner to exit the vehicle without setting the emergency brake. Although the Pistenbully had some mechanical issues, it is believed based on our mechanical inspection that the parking brake would keep the Pistenbully from moving forward. When Renner attempted to stop or divert the Pistenbully to avoid injury to (his nephew), he was pulled under the vehicle by the track and run over.”

The report noted that the brake lights were also malfunctioning on the Pistenbully, so mechanical failure is also a factor in the accident. Renner was injured on New Year’s Day and spent two weeks in the hospital, where he underwent multiple surgeries to repair fractures in his leg.

Renner has returned home from the hospital following this traumatic accident and has been hitting all his recovery goals. We look forward to seeing the recovered superhero back on the screen very soon and returning to full health.
