a. I took him to the hospital unconscious.
b. I took John, unconscious, to the hospital.
c. I took him, unconscious, to the hospital.
Which of the above are grammatical and meaningful?
Obviously I couldn't have been unconscious when I took him/John to the hospital, so John has to be the one who is unconscious.
Many thanks
took him to the hospital

Re: took him to the hospital
All possible, although #2 is rather unnatural.
