Stunning never-before-seen footage shows the moment after Senator Mitch McConnell (RINO-KY) suffered a ‘medical emergency’ last month at his DC home. At the same time, a neighbor has offered his own account of the incident.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, McConnell was reportedly found unconscious in his DC home last month before he was rushed to the hospital.
Per his spokesman, the 84-year-old Kentucky Senator was rushed to the hospital on June 14 and was supposedly “receiving excellent care.”
It is still unclear why McConnell was admitted to the hospital, though a heart attack is speculated as a possibility.
Now, brand new footage obtained by CNN on Friday shows McConnell being wheeled on a stretcher into an ambulance outside his DC home.
Per CNN, the footage was filmed by McConnell’s neighbor on the morning of June 14.
As the video shows, McConnell’s face is not visible.
WATCH:
The neighbor who shot the video told CNN that they opened their door to find a disturbance outside their home at around 8:30 a.m., with two ambulances, a fire truck, and Capitol Police officers blocking the street.
When the neighbor asked the officers what was happening, they said only that it was a medical emergency and refused to say whether McConnell had suffered one.
The neighbor then learned from another civilian that the person who suffered the medical emergency was McConnell, and he was not wearing an oxygen mask.
CNN reported:
The neighbor said they asked officers what was going on, and the officers responded that there had been a “medical emergency.” But when the neighbor inquired if McConnell was having a medical emergency, officers said they would block the street for anybody.
The neighbor said they learned from another eyewitness who saw the individual’s face that the person on the stretcher was McConnell, and he was not wearing an oxygen mask.
The video and the neighbor’s account have not been previously reported. They offer new details about the circumstances of McConnell’s hospitalization, which has been shrouded in mystery.
When the incident first occurred, his spokesperson only said that McConnell was “admitted to the hospital this morning” and was “receiving excellent care.”
