A Montgomery County, Maryland, firefighter has died after he was found unresponsive at a fire station Friday, fire officials said.

Rescue workers immediately started treating him and he was taken to a hospital, where he later died.
Montgomery County Fire and Rescue workers escorted Gentilcore's body to the medical examiner's office in Baltimore.
