An Alabama fire department is mourning the death of their 27-year-old fire chief, who passed away while representing the department at an EMS convention Thursday morning.

"It was an overwhelming thing for us," said Assistant Chief Richard Oliver of the Green Pond Volunteer Fire and Rescue Service.

Chief Harry Edward Suggs joined the department four years ago and became chief a year later. He formerly worked as a career firefighter at the Adamsville Fire Department.
