Roughly 30 minutes later, the neighbor watched first responders remove a person on a stretcher from the residence.
Videos recorded by the neighbor show emergency personnel moving the individual toward an ambulance. Because the footage was captured from a distance, the person's face is not visible. After the stretcher was loaded, the individual's lower legs appear covered by an orange blanket while the feet remain exposed.
The neighbor said the exposed feet were what stood out most. "He's in a stretcher, and he's in some sort like orange foam-looking blanket type thing," the neighbor told CNN. " The neighbor also recalled another resident saying, "Oh yeah, it's Mitch, I saw his face," according to the report.
"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," the neighbor told CNN. " The previously unreported footage and the neighbor's account offer new details about the circumstances surrounding the hospitalization, which has remained largely shrouded in mystery.
Several Republicans, including Senate Majority Leader John Thune, have said they have recently spoken with the senator.
