Cognac: a mother and her two young children poisoned by carbon monoxide

Fortunately, she had the good instinct to notify the emergency services without waiting, who went to the scene. Firefighters quickly located the source of the emission. “There was a problem with the boiler,” indicates Lieutenant Ludovic Roy, the head of the Cognac center. The young woman and her two young children, present at the time of the poisoning, a baby and a twenty-month-old boy, were transported to Cognac hospital for an assessment. “Their lives are not in danger,” reassures the firefighter.

The firefighters, accompanied on site by the lessor Logélia and GrDF, checked the equipment in the other accommodations in the building. The boiler should be repaired quickly.
