Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., was hospitalized on Thursday after he fell near his home in Pennsylvania, a spokesperson for the senator said.

“During an early morning walk, Senator Fetterman sustained a fall near his home in Braddock. Out of an abundance of caution, he was transported to a hospital in Pittsburgh,” the spokesperson said. “Upon evaluation, it was established he had a ventricular fibrillation flare-up that led to Senator Fetterman feeling light-headed, falling to the ground and hitting his face with minor injuries.”

The spokesperson added that Fetterman is currently “doing well and receiving routine observation at the hospital.” The spokesperson also shared a statement from Fetterman.

“If you thought my face looked bad before, wait until you see it now!” the senator said.
