State Senator Tom Patton's son, a Cleveland Hts police officer, collapses, dies while chasing suspect

CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio -- A 30-year-old Cleveland Heights police officer who is the son of State Sen. Thomas Patton died Saturday night while chasing a suspect after an incident at the Marc's store on Coventry Road.

Dozens of police officers from various departments across the region raced to Huron Hospital in East Cleveland to show support for officer Thomas Patton II, who had been on the force for seven years.

Patton and several other officers were chasing the suspect when Patton "suddenly stopped and doubled over," said Cleveland Heights Police Chief Martin Lentz. "He started running again and collapsed."

He was rushed to Huron Hospital after he collapsed, which happened about 8:45 p.m. Lentz said Patton had a pulse, but he soon died at the hospital.

When asked about Patton, Lentz was overcome with emotion and had to stop talking.

Sen. Patton could not be reached for comment Saturday night.

Many officers, as well as firefighters and emergency medical technicians, crowded in hallways at Huron Hospital and up to the emergency room. Several were wiping away tears.

Cleveland Heights Mayor Edward J. Kelley said that the city mourns the loss.

"This is a just a very tough one," Kelley said. "He was an exceptional officer, as are all of our officers. He will be missed."

The last Cleveland Heights police officer to die in the line of duty was Jason West, 31, who was fatally shot on May 25, 2007, while responding to a reported street fight. The shooter, Timothy Halton Jr. was captured after breaking into a nearby house.

Barack Obama has awakened a sleeping nation

Gary Hubbell, Aspen Times Weekly

Barack Obama is the best thing that has happened to America in the last 100 years. Truly, he is the savior of America's future. He is the best thing ever.

Despite the fact that he has some of the lowest approval ratings among recent presidents, history will see Barack Obama as the source of America's resurrection. Barack Obama has plunged the country into levels of debt that we could not have previously imagined; his efforts to nationalize health care have been met with fierce resistance nationwide; TARP bailouts and stimulus spending have shown little positive effect on the national economy; unemployment is unacceptably high and looks to remain that way for most of a decade; legacy entitlement programs have ballooned to unsustainable levels, and there is a seething anger in the populace.

That's why Barack Obama is such a good thing for America.
