Chilling new details have emerged about the medical emergency Kyle Busch experienced in the hours before his shocking death at 41 years old.
911 audio obtained by TMZ and published on Friday, May 22, captures a frantic call placed around 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 20, from a training facility in Concord, North Carolina. A caller is heard requesting an ambulance, telling dispatch, “I’ve got an individual that’s shortness of breath, very hot, thinks he’s going to pass out, and he’s producing a little bit of blood, coughing up some blood.”
Per the outlet, the caller confirmed multiple times that Busch was still conscious, urgently repeating, “He is awake. He’s awake. He’s awake.” According to TMZ, Busch was lying on a bathroom floor inside the complex as employees prepared for paramedics to arrive. The caller also reportedly asked responding crews to turn off their sirens while approaching the building and indicated he would meet them at a side entrance.

As In Touch previously reported, the NASCAR star had been using a Chevrolet racing simulator at the facility when he lost consciousness and was transported to a Charlotte-area hospital. His family released a statement the following day revealing he had been hospitalized with a “severe illness” and would not compete in the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway that weekend. Just hours after that announcement, his death was confirmed.

The alarming 911 call also comes on the heels of reports that Busch had sought medical assistance less than two weeks earlier during a race weekend at Watkins Glen, where he had reportedly been battling a severe sinus-related illness, per TMZ.
Busch is survived by his wife, Samantha, and their two children, son Brexton, 11, and daughter Lennix, 4.
