SPRING HILL, Fla. — A group of Florida firefighters are being praised after photos of them mowing the lawn of a man whose home they had been called to went viral.

The first responders — Capt. Daniel Papa, driver engineer Eugene Mobley, firefighter Scot Kortright, firefighter Timothy Sinnott, firefighter Joseph DePiero and fire explorer Jordan Gennusa — responded to a 911 call late Saturday afternoon at the home of Ralph McCrory in Spring Hill, Fla.

McCrory had been mowing his lawn in the summer heat when he started to experience what he told his wife he thought was a heart attack. A rescue crew rushed McCrory to a local hospital where he is now undergoing more tests and awaiting possible heart surgery while the firefighters stayed behind to ask his wife if they could help.
