Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell was hospitalized Wednesday night after suffering a fall at a Washington, D.C., hotel, his spokesman said.
“This evening, leader McConnell tripped at a local hotel during a private dinner. He has been admitted to the hospital where he is receiving treatment,” David Popp, the Kentucky Republican’s spokesman, said in a statement to NBC News.
No further information on his condition was immediately available.
At 81 years old, McConnell is among the oldest politicians in the Senate, and at 38 years of service in the chamber, he is the 13th longest-serving senator in history. Of sitting senators, only Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, has served longer at 42 years.
