WASHINGTON (CNN) -- U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft is in the 
intensive care unit of a Washington hospital after being admitted 
Thursday night for gallstone pancreatitis, the Justice Department said 
Friday.

The nation's top legal officer was brought to George Washington 
University Hospital's emergency room for evaluation of stomach 
complaints, Justice Department spokesman Mark Corrallo said in a 
statement.

  Emergency room doctors determined he was suffering from a severe case 
of gallstone pancreatitis, and Ashcroft was admitted to the intensive 
care unit for monitoring and treatment with antibiotics, the department 
said.

  Ashcroft, 61, believing he had stomach flu, canceled a Thursday 
appearance in Alexandria, Virginia, to announce verdicts in a terrorism 
case, the department said.

  He went home, and when the conditioned worsened, White House physician 
Daniel Park visited him and concluded he should be hospitalized.

  The department said doctors expect to know more about Ashcroft's 
condition within 48 hours.
