"Chicago Fire" Star Molly Glynn Dead At 46 After Being Hit By A Falling Tree

Molly Glynn, a remarkable Chicago theater actress and "Chicago Fire" star, died on Saturday after being struck and killed by a falling tree while on a bike ride with her husband.  





Glynn, 46, was riding with her husband Joe Foust in Chicago's Erickson Woods when a sudden storm approached at approximately 3 p.m. in the afternoon. 

According to US Weekly, Joe was riding ahead of Molly and heard her scream that they should seek safety before she was hit. Molly, who was wearing a bike helmet, was rushed to Evanston NorthShore Hospital where she succumbed to her injuries.

"I couldn't save her. I couldn't save her. She's gone," Foust wrote on his Facebook account after she passed away.

"Molly was a marvelous actress and a completely warm hearted and generous human being. She had grace, sophistication and a sparkling, sexy, sassy stage presence," Michael Halberstam, the artistic director at Chicago's Writers Theatre revealed to CBS, noting: "She could transform from a princess to a flower girl in the twinkling of an eye. She was a loving mother and wife and everyone who met her fell in love with her"
