The U.S. Fire Administration was notified recently about the on-duty death
of a New Mexico firefighter that occurred in August.

Captain Nicholas Lee Yuselew, 47, of the Pueblo of Zuni Fire/EMS, collapsed
at his station Aug. 16,2005 after returning from an exercise class,
according to USFA reports.

The cause of death was listed as a heart attack following exertion from a
spinning class.

After being notified of Capt. Yuselew's death this past weekend, officials
lowered the flag at the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial to half staff
in his honor.
