CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Fire fighters responded to a carbon monoxide leak at an assisted living facility on the 5800 block of Old Providence Road just after 10 a.m. Saturday.
Firefighters determined the cause of the CO reading was a faulty water heater. The 12 occupants were relocated to the dining room for safety and the place had to be ventilated until the carbon monoxide was removed.
