Never-before-seen footage captures former Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell being wheeled on a stretcher into an ambulance outside his Washington, DC, home following an apparent cardiac arrest.

McConnell’s neighbor filmed the incident on the morning of June 14 as emergency responders arrived to provide medical assistance to the Kentucky lawmaker, according to CNN. 

The video is shot from a distance and McConnell’s face is not visible. The person on the stretcher can be seen with their lower legs covered by an orange blanket as their feet remain exposed.

CNN reported that a separate neighbor said McConnell was not wearing an oxygen mask when he was loaded onto the stretcher. 

McConnell, 84, was admitted to a hospital following a medical emergency at his Washington, DC home. EMS recordings showed paramedics responded to a report of an unconscious person believed to have suffered a ‘cardiac arrest,’ with a medic reporting ‘CPR in progress’ at the address.

The senator was not named on the call, and his office has never confirmed what sent him to the hospital, saying only that he is receiving ‘excellent care.’

Speculation surrounding McConnell’s health has intensified in recent days because Donald Trump’s MAGA loyalists, such as Laura Loomer, have said McConnell is ‘brain dead.’ 

McConnell has been absent from the Senate for nearly a month as he continues to recover in the hospital. The 84-year-old lawmaker is not seeking reelection this November and will retire when his term ends in January.
