Jeremy Renner suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries in a snow plow accident in Reno, Nevada, on Sunday, a representative for the actor said Monday, and remains in critical but stable condition after undergoing surgery.

A publicist for Renner said in a statement that the 51-year-old BԪַAvengersBԪַ star is in an intensive care unit following surgery on Monday.

BԪַThey are also tremendously overwhelmed and appreciative of the outpouring of love and support from his fans.BԪַ

Authorities and RennerBԪַs representative havenBԪַt said how the accident occurred. The Washoe County SheriffBԪַs Office said late Sunday that Renner had to be flown by helicopter to a hospital for treatment.

Renner was injured in an area near Mt. Rose Highway, a road linking Lake Tahoe, which straddles the Nevada-California border, and south Reno. Renner owns a home in Washoe County, which includes Reno, and told the Reno Gazette Journal in 2019 that he chose the area because Reno was the right-sized city for him, it has majestic scenery and it allowed him and his family to ski frequently.

Renner was the only person involved in SundayBԪַs accident, and the sheriffBԪַs office said in a news release that it is investigating.

Renner plays Hawkeye, a sharp-shooting member of the superhero Avengers squad in MarvelBԪַs sprawling movie and television universe.

He is a two-time acting Oscar nominee, scoring back-to-back nods for BԪַThe Hurt LockerBԪַ and BԪַThe Town.BԪַ RennerBԪַs portrayal of a bomb disposal specialist in Iraq in 2009BԪַs BԪַThe Hurt LockerBԪַ helped turn him into a household name.

BԪַThe AvengersBԪַ in 2012 cemented him as part of MarvelBԪַs grand storytelling ambitions, with his character appearing in several sequels and getting its own Disney+ series, BԪַHawkeye.BԪַ
