On New Year’s Day, Jeremy was run over by a seven-ton snowplow while helping his nephew get his care out of the driveway of his residence near Reno, Nevada, after the vehicle got stuck in the snow.

However, his snow plow started sliding down a street after the car was towed, prompting the actor to jump out of his cab.

After getting out of the vehicle, Renner realized it could potentially hit his cousin, who was with him at the time of the incident. The Mayor of Kingstown star then attempted to re-enter the snow plow to reroute his path, but was pulled under the left lane and run over during the attempt.
