Reports drawing on emergency dispatch audio state that U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham reported chest pains shortly before his death Saturday night in Washington, D.C. According to the New York Post, medics were dispatched after reports of a person suffering chest pains, followed by a reported heart attack, to Graham’s home on or near Capitol Hill. The outlet describes a call placed around 8:30 p.m., in which the need for emergency medical response is communicated. The Post also reports that colleagues said Graham told his scheduler he had chest pains and directed them to call 911 shortly before he died. Both accounts rely on the same general timeline: an initial report of chest pains, a subsequent escalation to a reported heart attack during the emergency response process, and Graham’s sudden death later that night. The articles do not provide additional confirmation from official authorities in the excerpts provided, and they focus on what is captured in dispatch and accounts of how the emergency was triggered.
