Baltimore's police commissioner, who fell ill in the 9th mile of a 10-mile charity run today will remain overnight at Maryland Shock Trauma Center for observation. I still don't know how much money he raised by passing runners, but I'll let you know as soon as I find out.

Here is an update from Baltimore Sun reporter Scott Calvert:

Baltimore Police Commissioner Frederick H. Bealefeld III (at left before today's race) will spend the night at Shock Trauma for "standard 24-hour observation" after feeling ill during a 10-mile charity run in Druid Hill Park this morning.

"At this point it's just not looking like it's anything critical," said police spokesman Anthony J. Guglielmi. He said the results of unspecified medical tests have come back and that "things look OK."

Additional tests were planned, he said.

"He is talking, he's coherent, he's responsive," Guglielmi said. "He's talking to family and staff."
Bealefeld, 47, had a health problem around 9:15 a.m. near the nine-mile mark of the University of Maryland Heart Center Baltimore 10-Miler. The race started at 7:30 a.m."He didn't pass out, but he didn't feel so hot," his spokesman said. "His aides saw that, and they stopped along
the route and contacted assistance."

"Officers brought him to an ambulance to be checked out; he was preliminarily evaluated at the race site and transported to Shock Trauma where he is undergoing formalized testing."
