One appliance from Falmouth Community Fire Station and a whole time officer were mobilised to a property with the occupants suffering from possible Carbon Monoxide poisoning. On arrival crews used two breathing apparatus and one carbon monoxide detector to investigate. Crews found no signs of Carbon Monoxide and left the occupants in the care of the Ambulance service.

Carbon Monoxide is potentially fatal and even low-levels of the poison can cause lasting damage to your health. You can't smell it, see it or taste it, but it could be there now.
