While visiting sister cities..Omaha Mayor Jim Suttle feels tired and dehydrated…goes to hospital…

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Omaha Mayor Jim Suttle is on his way back to the United States after spending several days in an Irish hospital.

The mayor’s office says Suttle should be back in Omaha either late Monday or early Tuesday morning.

Suttle was hospitalized in Ireland on Friday after he complained that he wasn’t feeling well.

Suttle had been on a 10-day tour of three European countries where Omaha has sister cities before he became ill.

Doctors at the hospital in Naas, Ireland, found the mayor was tired, dehydrated and had a spike in blood pressure. Suttle plans to visit his own doctor when he returns home.
