MFD Hands Out Carbon Monoxide Alarms

MILWAUKEE - With winter only a few months away, carbon monoxide poisoning is a growing concern. The Milwaukee Fire Department is taking a proactive approach. Firefighters are passing out carbon monoxide alarms to low-income citizens. Those 250 alarms were a donation from First Alert. It's part of a home safety "focus" event to raise awareness about the dangers of CO poisoning and the precautions that should be taken for protection from the deadly gas.
