A Dilworth firefighter has been hospitalized after suffering a heart attack while battling a blaze in a metal shed.

Clay County Sheriff Bill Bergquist says firefighter Mike Brendemuhl was inside the burning building when he became ill, so he was taken by ambulance to Sanford in Fargo.

Brendemuhl underwent an emergency angioplasty and is expected to make a full recovery. An employee who works at the shop was treated and released for smoke inhalation.

The fire was quickly brought under control.
