BC Safety Authority reveals source of fatal carbon monoxide poisoning
ASHCROFT, B.C. — The BC Safety Authority says an improperly-vented water heater was the cause of carbon monoxide buildup that killed a family of four near Ashcroft last month.
Harvey Volaine, his wife Melissa Penner, and their two boys Kaylex and Ay, were found dead in their Venables Valley home March 24.
RCMP responding to a well-being check request discovered the bodies, and called the Safety Authority to help investigate.
