Firefighters from the Hanover Fire Area & Fire Rescue answered an emergency call on Sunday afternoon when they found two unconscious people who names and genders were not released who were inside their home. It is not clear if an eyewitness called the fire department or the victims had called the authorities to inform them that they needed to be rescued. Volunteers with the fire department found the two victims unconscious from the carbon monoxide that had used a gas-powered pressure washer in the basement which sent the two victims to the hospital where their condition is in serious condition. The firefighters are asking homeowners to use generators outside of their homes since the risk of being injured will be less severe. Link is msn.com/en-us/news/us/...

Yes common sense not to use gas powered inside omygosh.

Goodness, by now people ought to know that generators are to be outside use only. I do hope that they make a full recovery.

We can all do something silly like this at times. We can learn not to repeat such actions ourselves too. I did something stupid like that when I was shaving once. A lot of cut whiskers were caught in the double-bladed razor. Without thinking, I ran my finger along the blade to remove the hairs so it would cut better, and not be clogged up, and of course, I stupidly cut my finger on the sharp blades.

I can relate to learning from my errors in life.
