A scary scene was captured on camera Wednesday when Mississippi Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann, 77, suddenly collapsed on the state’s Senate floor.

Hosemann was presiding over a legislative session when he appeared to lose consciousness and fell forward into his microphone, podium, and eventually the floor.



He was treated in the Capitol by medical staff and was “sitting upright shortly after he fell,” reported Mississippi Today, which added he later walked out of the Capitol on his own and got into a private vehicle.

..

Hosemann is considered a “likely candidate” to run for governor in 2027 as Gov. Tate Reeves will be termed out, reported the Mississippi Free Press.
