Officials said Senator Vince Fumo has been upgraded to fair condition after suffering a heart attack over the weekend.

A spokesperson for Fumo said the ailing Senator has been out of his bed at Hahneman Hospital briefly and is experiencing no chest pains after he was admitted on Sunday.

The 64-year-old Pennsylvania State Senator was taken in for emergency surgery to clear total blockage in his coronary artery.

On February 19, Fumo was also hospitalized while undergoing surgery on his back.

It is unclear when he will be released from his current hospital stay.
