GOP Senate Leader Mitch McConnell tripped on Tuesday, spraining his wrist and sustaining “a minor cut to the face,” his office said in a statement.

The incident is the latest in a high-profile string of health issues for the 82-year-old Kentucky Republican.

“Leader McConnell tripped following lunch. He sustained a minor cut to the face and sprained his wrist. He has been cleared to resume his schedule,” a McConnell spokesman said in a statement.

McConnell is expected to continue to serve in his Senate seat until his term expires in January 2027.
