Three family members die of suspected CO poisoning

An investigation was launched on Sunday after an elderly couple and their daughter were found dead from suspected carbon monoxide poisoning at a caravan park in Cornwall.

Firefighters and a specialist hazardous material advisor attended the property at Tremarle Home Park in Camborne after the alarm was raised about 13:00 GMT.

“Shortly before 1pm this afternoon, we were called to a caravan park near Camborne in Cornwall, where a helper had been unable to get a reply from an elderly couple who lived in the caravan,” said Inspector David Eldridge of Devon and Cornwall Police.

“We were able to see that there was a figure sat in a chair but they were unresponsive to knocks at the door.

“Cornwall Fire and Rescue were called,” he added. “They forced entry into the property and found that the three occupants were all dead.”
