A Spring Hill man who was feeling ill while mowing the lawn, took a break and called 911. It turned out, he was having a heart attack.

Rescue crews responded and the man was rushed to the hospital. The members of Engine 2 stayed behind, grabbed the lawn mower and finished the job for him, even taking the time to brush off the driveway.
