He tested the unit upstairs and downstairs. And he didnt get any Carbon Monoxide readings in either case. Firefighters came out here about 7 00 last night on cortland street in the Bernal Heights neighborhood in San Francisco. A total of 14 people had to be transported to the hospital after being exposed to the colorless, odorless gas. Firefighters say those patients did have Carbon Monoxide in their blood stream. A pg e representative here on scene responded and was not able to figure out where the gas was coming from. One neighbor told us this Carbon Monoxide scare actually forced her to evacuate. We got a knock on the door from our neighbors and they told us that theres like Carbon Monoxide leak upstairs. They told us to come out of the house. When we got out, there was a fire truck and ambulances up and down the street. They took the whole families to the hospital. Reporter i just checked in a couple of hours ago with the San Francisco Fire Department dispatch center. I asked how the family members are doing. I wasnt able to get an update on their Current Conditions at the hospital. Theres no word whether the family was alerted by a Carbon Monoxide detecter but this is certainly a good reminder for all of the rest of us. There is a California Law that went into effect last year requiring all singlefamily homes to have a Carbon Monoxide detector and then starting in january of next year, all condos and apartments must also install those Carbon Monoxide detecters.
