A female firefighter has died overnight after she became ‘trapped’ and ran out of air’ in a factory fire at Slacks Creek, Brisbane, early yesterday morning.

Izabella Nash, 46, died after entering the inferno with two colleagues about 2.30am on Tuesday before the three were all feared missing in the flames.

Her two fellow firies were found and pulled from the flames but it is believed Ms Nash ran out of oxygen, amid fears her breathing apparatus failed.

She is understood to have fallen unconscious inside the blazing building before being discovered and carried out by other firefighters.

A second firie, senior Firefighter Lia Drew, remains in hospital in a serious but stable condition, suffering burns and smoke inhalation.
