Ohio Firefighter Stricken at Scene, Dies
An Ohio firefighter who collapsed at a fire scene last month has died.
Williamsburg Township Lt. David Knapke, 55, suffered a massive heart attack May 30 at a house fire in Mt. Orab.
He was resuscitated at the scene and flown to Cincinnati Medical Center. Doctors could not find blockages or a cause for the cardiac arrest.
Knapke was later transferred to a hospice center where he died June 5.
His family has been involved in the fire service for generations.
Funeral services are pending.
