“Chicago Fire” actress DuShon Monique Brown has died after suffering an apparent heart attack. She was 49.
Production sources tell us Brown admitted herself to a Chicago hospital a few days ago after suffering chest pains, we’re told she went through tests but was released a short time later.
Things apparently took a turn for the worse Friday … our sources say Brown died at home after some type of cardiac episode.
