Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay was found unresponsive when first responders were called to his home last month, according to police records obtained by USA TODAY Sports.
The report said that emergency crews were dispatched around 4:30 a.m. on Dec. 8 to Irsay's home in Carmel, Indiana, where they found the 64-year-old unresponsive and laboring to breathe. Officers said that Irsay had fallen in the bathroom and been transferred to his bed.
The complainant, whose name was redacted and only identified in records as a 66-year-old male, led authorities to where Irsay was.
The report logged the incident as a suspected "overdose," and that authorities were called to "assist fire (officials) with a male that was unresponsive, breathing, but turning blue."
"Irsay was unconscious with abnormal breathing (agonal breathing), a weak pulse, and he was cold to the touch," the report said, noting the incident was recorded by police body cameras.

Officers were close to using an automated external defibrillator to shock Irsay’s heart, but paramedics arrived on the scene and took Irsay to a local hospital. The responders did administer Narcan, which is used to reverse opioid overdoses.
The team said last week that Irsay was "being treated for a severe respiratory illness" and couldn't perform a scheduled performance with his band in Los Angeles, and added that he was "receiving excellent care" and looked forward to "returning to the stage as soon as possible."
The Colts issued another statement on Wednesday about Irsay's health:
"Mr. Irsay continues to recover from his respiratory illness. We will have no further comment on his personal health, and we continue to ask that Jim and his family’s privacy be respected."
