TMZ reports an update on the health of Jeremy Renner .
who was involved in an accident while shoveling snow with a snowcat on his property in Washoe County, Nevada.
Apparently, the snowcat accidentally ran over one of his legs. The actor lost a lot of blood, but a neighbor, a doctor, managed to apply a tourniquet to slow the bleeding before Renner was loaded aboard an air rescue helicopter.
Police treated the area as a crime scene. Apparently the snowcat is equipped with extensive safety measures that were supposed to prevent it from riding over Renner’s leg.
A source close to the actor claims that his injuries are “extensive”, and therefore that other parts of his body were injured in the accident.
