Six Gladstone residents suffer from carbon monoxide poisoning
Six adults reportedly suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning inside a Gladstone residence on Feb. 16.
Four of the six residents were sent to the hospital while two received treatment at the scene. Clackamas County officials later in the day reported that four people died of carbon monoxide poisoning during the ice storm, but the six in Gladstone survived the incident.
Clackamas firefighters, assisting Gladstone Fire crews on East Fairfield Street, reported the residents were using a generator inside for heat, leading to the poisoning.
KOIN 6 News Elise Haas spoke to Wyatt Ouchida, who lives across the street. He said he and his neighbors have been without power since Friday.
