Cardinal Camillo Ruini is in intensive care after a suspected heart attack but alert and stable, Rome's Gemelli Hospital said Sunday.
    "Late yesterday evening Cardinal Camillo Ruini was urgently admitted to the Gemelli Hospital for chest pain," said the hospital after the 93-year-old ex Italian bishops chief was rushed there Saturday night.
    "In view of the cardinal's advanced age and clinical history, admission to the cardiology intensive care unit was necessary," it said.
    "The patient is alert and collaborating and his clinical condition is currently stable.
    "Monitoring and therapies continue".
    The Gemelli did not confirm reports that Ruini had suffered a heart attack.
