March 20 (UPI) -- Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was hospitalized with an infection on Friday after experiencing flu-like symptoms, the nation's highest court said Sunday.
Thomas, the Supreme Court's longest-serving justice, was admitted to Washington, D.C.'s Sibley Memorial Hospital late last week where he underwent tests and was diagnosed with an infection, Supreme Court spokeswoman Patricia McCabe said in a statement, adding that he is being treated with intravenous antibiotics.
