The clip, obtained and verified by CNN, shows emergency responders lifting what appears to be the 84-year-old senator into the back of the ambulance on a stretcher on the morning of June 14.

One neighbor told CNN that they asked officers what was going on, but they only replied there had been a “medical emergency.” The neighbor also noted that emergency responders did not seem in too much of a rush to place McConnell in the back of the ambulance.

“In a situation where perhaps time is of the essence, there seems to be a little bit more urgency, but there was no urgency here.”

McConnell has been in the hospital for weeks after he was found unconscious at his Washington, D.C., home and required CPR. The Kentucky senator’s team has been criticized for failing to provide any meaningful update on his condition, his treatment, or whether the 84-year-old will be able to return to office.

The video is filmed from a distance, so McConnell’s face is not visible. Another witness who saw emergency responders putting McConnell into the ambulance noted that he was not wearing an oxygen mask.

A neighbor told CNN they saw the stretcher being carried out of McConnell’s home about 30 minutes after they first noticed ambulances on the street.

“He’s in a stretcher, and he’s in some sort like orange foam looking blanket type thing,” the neighbor said, adding they managed to see the 84-year-old’s feet but they were “not moving.”

“One of my neighbors is like, ‘Oh yeah, it’s Mitch, I saw his face,’” they added.

The ambulance also did not turn on its sirens as it drove away with McConnell inside, according to the neighbor.
