'CHICAGO FIRE' ACTRESS
DUSHON MONIQUE BROWN
DEAD AT 49

"Chicago Fire" actress DuShon Monique Brown has died after suffering an apparent heart attack.

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.

DuShon -- a Chicago native -- has been on "Chicago Fire" since the show started in 2012. She played Connie, the assistant to Chief Boden. She was also on "Prison Break" from 2005 to 2007.

DuShon has a background in social work and a Masters in Counseling and once worked as a counselor at a local high school.

Very sad news, she was so young. I hope the show will pay tribute to her.

Yea, I hope they do something to pay tribute. She had a minor role, but when she was on screen, she almost always brought a smile.

They did an odd little tribute to her on the season's opener. They made her character leave to be a school counselor. That was Dushon's real life occupation before acting.

that was kind of a disappointing send off, I thought the would make a bigger deal of her death.
