Haz‐Mat Response in Kenmore

Monday, March 14, 2011

The Northshore Fire Department responded to the report of a possible hazardous materials incident at an apartment building in the 8000 block of NE Bothell Way at 6:00 a.m. this morning.

As a result of a note taped to an apartment door, firefighters requested the Eastside Hazardous Materials team for assistance. Ten residents were evacuated from adjacent units and evaluated; all were uninjured. The Haz‐Mat team detected high levels of carbon monoxide in the apartment and discovered a person overcome by the poisonous gas. The source of the carbon monoxide was from a barbeque intentionally placed in the apartment.

Upon investigation, a King County Sheriff’s representative believes the death to be suicide.
