VILLA PARK — On Sunday, October 18, the Independent learned that Villa Park paramedics had responded to an ambulance call on the 200 block of West Division Street, where a family of 11 people had been suffering from apparent carbon monoxide poisoning on that morning. The call came in at 8:57 a.m., according to Lt. Chris Gilliland of the Villa Park Fire Department. The ambulance call was for a 15-year-old resident of the single family home who had a headache. Emergency responders found 10 other people in the home suffering from the same symptoms, which were consistent with carbon monoxide poisoning. Everyone in the home was transported to area hospitals for treatment, Gilliland said. Preliminary investigations indicate a gas appliance may have been the source of the leak, from either a water heater or a furnace. The condition of the 11 people was unknown as of press time.
