HOUSTON — One person died Thursday due to carbon monoxide poisoning at a northwest Houston apartment, according to firefighters.
Six others were taken to a nearby hospital. Two of them had to be given CPR on scene before they were rushed to the emergency room.
This happened at about 10:30 a.m. in the 6500 block of W 43rd, near Highway 290, but the Houston Fire Department didn't tweet about it until about 8:45 p.m.
Firefighters said a generator was found inside the apartment but did not say if this was the cause of the carbon monoxide poisoning.
A HAZMAT team responded to the scene.
