Actor Jeremy Renner suffered a serious injury last week after an accident near his home.
“We can confirm Jeremy is in critical but stable condition with injuries suffered after experiencing a weather related accident while plowing snow earlier today,” a representative for Renner told Variety.
“His family is with him, and he is receiving excellent care,” the representative said.
