The 911 call of Jeremy Renner's snowplow accident is now out, detailing the horrific events of what happened, from his whining in the background to being "completely crushed." Fortunately, the actor now looks out of danger after personally updating fans on his status on Instagram.
On New Year's Day, the four corners of the entertainment industry were shocked when news broke that Renner was in critical condition following a weather-related accident. Though he was reportedly in stable condition, many couldn't help but still worry about him.
In the 911 call log obtained by TMZ, the 51-year-old was said to be "completely crushed" after being run over by his snowplow. He was reportedly heard moaning, probably due to the pain, and having an "extremely" difficult time breathing after his chest collapsed and his upper torso was crushed.
He had also lost much blood due to heavy bleeding. However, the Washoe County Sheriff's Office's PIO told Page Six that they couldn't confirm the call log's details as they hadn't released the 911 call.
But Washoe County Sheriff Darin Balaam revealed during a press conference Tuesday, January 3, that a huge snow removal equipment, called a PistenBully, with an estimated weight of about 14,330 pounds, indeed ran over Renner
Fortunately, one of his neighbors was a doctor and placed a tourniquet on his leg until the paramedics arrived. He was then airlifted from the mountain to a nearby hospital to treat his injuries.
At the time, Renner's rep released a statement, saying "The Avengers" star was in "critical but stable condition" after sustaining injuries in "a weather-related accident while plowing snow." His publicist, Samantha Mas, also told People he had sustained "blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries."
Mast added more details about the accident. Before the incident, Renner was near his Nevada home when he started clearing driveways with his snowplow so that his family members could make their way after spending the holidays together.
Hence, they were all with him when the accident happened. Mast later revealed that the actor is "making positive progress and is already awake, talking, and in good spirits."
Though he remains in ICU, he's already in stable condition. In fact, he's overwhelmed by the love and support he has been receiving. "The family asks for your continued thoughts while he heals with his close loved ones," Mast continued.
Renner, alternatively, personally thanked his well-wishers for their "kind words" in his first social media post since the accident. He shared a photo of himself and gave everyone a glimpse of his condition, lying on the hospital bed with bruises and scrapes on his face. "Im (sic) too messed up now to type. But I send love to you all," he wrote.
