Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott said in a memo to employees that the company has “a minimal level of detail right now” about the incident, but she was able to confirm Hall has been taken to a hospital.

“Our teams on the ground are working to gather additional information as the situation quickly unfolds,” she said.

Other Fox News correspondents and hosts responded to the news with prayers for Hall’s recovery:
