Attorney General Michael Mukasey collapsed Thursday night while giving a speech to the Federalist Society in Washington, according to three senior administration officials.
Details about Mukasey's condition were not immediately available.
Audience members said they began praying, fearing a stroke.
Mukasey is a former federal prosecutor from New York City who succeeded former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.
At 10:30 p.m. Eastern, medical officials were still working on him on the stage, administration witnesses said.
