LISTEN IN FULL: Kyle Busch 911 Call — NASCAR Legend 'Coughed Up Blood, Struggled to Breathe' & 'Passed Out in Racing Simulator' Before Death
New dispatch audio exposes the frantic scene inside Busch’s racing headquarters.
A harrowing 911 call reveals NASCAR legend Kyle Busch collapsed while using a racing simulator at his team’s North Carolina headquarters the day before his shocking death at the age of 41.
Busch was reportedly coughing up blood when paramedics were called to the General Motors Charlotte Technical Center on May 20, where the driver was preparing for this weekend’s Coca-Cola 600.
“I’ve got an individual that’s (experiencing) shortness of breath, very hot, and thinks he’s going to pass out, and he’s producing a little bit of blood, coughing up some blood,” the caller told the 911 operator.
The man on the phone said Busch was “awake” and “on the bathroom floor right now,” after previously battling a bad sinus cold.
