LOS ANGELES - Vincent D'Onofrio, star of "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," was back in the hospital Tuesday after a recurrent fainting spell.
D'Onofrio, who had been hospitalized for two days last week when he fainted after a rehearsal for the New York-based NBC drama, was expected to return to work Tuesday.
But he suffered another fainting incident late Monday at his New York home and returned to the unidentified hospital for further observation and testing, series spokeswoman Pam Ruben Golum said.
Initial tests didn't reveal any health problems, she said.
"He's in good spirits and producers are optimistic he'll be released soon," Golum said Tuesday.
D'Onofrio, who plays New York police Detective Robert Goren, had first fainted after rehearsing a strenuous scene that included climbing. He was not in ill health before the incident, according to series producer NBC Universal Television Studio.
Series production is not expected to be affected by D'Onofrio's hospitalization, Golum said.

Oh my I am so concerned. Thank you for the update and any other info. greatly appreciated. Is there anywhere we can write to send our best wishes?
Unfortunate news. However, it's better that he get some rest and that the doctors discover the cause of the problem. My father had a saying about that - "it's better to be a little patient now than a big patient later". -D.
God. I hope he is ok. I want him and CI but mainly him to be ok.
I am sad to hear this - I hope they can find out what's wrong!! Can't have anything happening to our V-man! Hope you're feeling better Vincent!
