An accident occurred in which three members of a family were poisoned by carbon monoxide while grilling meat on charcoal in the living room of a home in Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon-do.
According to the fire department on the 8th, at around 7:45 pm on the 6th, a report was received that three men and women who were grilling meat over charcoal at a home in Ilseokgok-ri, Hwaam-myeon, Jeongseon-gun were showing symptoms such as dizziness and cold sweat.
The dispatched fire department determined that the symptoms were carbon monoxide poisoning and transported three people, including Mr. A, in his 60s, to a large hospital in Wonju. It is reported that there is no risk to life.
At the time, five people were grilling meat over charcoal in the living room, and three of them were found to have been eating over a charcoal fire for about an hour. The remaining two are said to have joined just before the previous three showed symptoms.
Firefighting authorities said, “Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, so it is not easy to detect danger in advance,” and added, “Please be especially careful when using fire as a moment of carelessness can lead to serious casualties.”
