Even celebrities aren’t immune to the scarier parts of home-ownership — fires, burglaries, home invasions, and even carbon monoxide poisoning, which is also known as the ‘silent killer.’
Actress and comedian Anna Faris found that out for herself over Thanksgiving weekend.
Anna sent out a tweet expressing her gratitude for the fire department that saved them.
““I’m not quite sure how to express gratitude to the north Lake Tahoe fire department — we were saved from carbon monoxide,” she wrote .
“It’s a stupidly dramatic story.”
“But I’m feeling very fortunate.”
The North Tahoe Fire Department responded to this message on Twitter, writing , “So #thankful for a happy ending to this #carbonmonoxide #co incident.”
“Never assume you are safe, check your alarms whenever you #Travel!”
According to the North Tahoe Fire District , the carbon monoxide level at Faris’ vacation home housing 13 people was as high as 55 parts per million and the residence didn’t have carbon monoxide alarms.
“We are so thankful to report that this holiday disaster was averted,” said the fire chief Mike Schwartz in a statement.
“Situational awareness is so important. Whether you are at home or travelling, it is important ensure that smoke and CO [carbon monoxide] alarms are in working order anywhere you stay.”
We’re so glad everyone was okay!
