Lionel Richie was rushed to the hospital after he fell ill onstage and abruptly ended his concert early.
On Wednesday, Saint Paul Fire Department PIO Jamie Smith confirmed to Page Six that they “did transport an adult male from the arena last night to a local hospital.”
However, the “All Night Long” singer’s current condition remains unclear.
