Indianapolis - Shortly after 10:15 Sunday night police and emergency
medical personnel were called to 4202 Spann Ave. on the city's east side
to check out the report of a possible cardiac arrest.
Police found a 46-year-old man and his dog dead inside the house.
They also determined there was a lethal amount of carbon monoxide in the
air inside the residence and had to evacuate.
Firefighters then
detected a very high measurement of CO that came from a generator.
"There
was a reading of 300 parts per million. Very deadly. Anything over
double digits is basically deadly," said an officer on the scene.
Carbon monoxide, or CO, is a byproduct of internal combustion engines
and just about anything that burns.<a href="http://www.wthr.com/Global/story.asp?S=12100422">http://www.wthr.com/Global/story.asp?S=12100422</a>
