Return to Story IndexWHAT WE KNOW
ONE PERSON DIED, ONE PERSON IS IN CRITICAL CONDITION AND MORE THAN A DOZEN WERE SICKEND WHEN THE LEAK HAPPENED LAST WEEK NOW LAWMAKERS ARE PUSHING TO MAKE IT MANDATORY THAT PLACES LIKE HOTELS HAVE CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS IN PLACE..... WE BEGIN WITH THE VERY LATEST ON THE INVESTIGATION. 59:47 'WE HAVE INTERVIEWED A NUMBER OF PEOPLE TO TRY AND DETERMINE THE FACTS OF THIS INCIDENT...." EYEWITNESS NEWS HAS UNCOVERED NEW INFORMATION SURROUNDING THE FATAL CARBON MONOXIDE LEAK AT THE HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS IN SOUTH CHARLESTON. WE NOW KNOW THAT INVESTIGATORS ARE TRYING TO DETERMINE WHOM OF 3 DIFFERENT PARTIES IS ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE EXHAUST PIPE ON THE POOL HEATING UNIT TO BECOME DISCONNECTED. :012 "WE'VE TALKED TO A HOTEL WORKER...LIMITED MAINTENANCE MAINLY CUSTODIAL.....HE SAID HE HAD VERY LITTLE INVOLVEMENT ACCORDING TO HIS TESTIMONY...AND WE ARE STILL TRYING TO FILL IN SOME OF THE GAPS." THAT HOTEL WORKER, AN UNNAMED COMPANY AND BARBOURSVILLE BASED PREMIER POOLS ALL WORKED ON THE HEATING UNIT. STEVE COMBS OWNS PREMIER POOLS...HE SAYS HE WAS JUST FINISHING A JOB SOMEONE ELSE STARTED AND FEELS HIS ROLE WOULDN'T HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE EXHAUST PIPE. THIS IS WHAT HE HAD TO SAY LAST WEEK WHEN WE FIRST BROKE THE NEWS OF HIS INVOLVEMENT. THE POOL HEATER IS ON THE MAIN FLOOR IN THE POOL EQUIPMENT ROOM, A ROOM NOT ACCESSIBLE TO GUESTS. ....IT IS A JANDY POOL HEATER MODEL NUMBER LRZ......WE'RE TOLD A UNIT JUST LIKE THIS ONE WAS INSTALLED AROUND DECEMBER 27TH... CHECK OUT THIS DIAGRAM WE HAVE MADE TO BREAK DOWN WHAT HAPPENED FOR YOU..... THE EXHAUST PIPE ATTACHED TO THE HEATER GOES STRAIGHT UP UNTIL IT GETS TO THE FOURTH FLOOR...THAT'S WHERE IT BENDS AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE TO RELEASE CARBON MONOXIDE OUTSIDE. AND *THAT IS WHERE THE PIPE BECAME DISCONNECTED....CAUSING C-O TO FIRST BUILD UP INSIDE THE WALL-- AND EVENTUALLY LEAK OUT INTO THE HOTEL. 5:45 "tHE PIPE WAS DISJOINTED ONE PIECE IS HANGING AWAY FROM ANOTHER.....THE PIECE WAS DENTED SMASHED OUT AROUND.....AND IT WAS NEXT TO A CONCRETE SLAB WHICH LOOKS LIKE IT WAS IMPACTED IN A WAY THAT IT WOULD BE DENTED." 6:01 "IT WASN'T CORRODED OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT THE APPEARANCE TO ME IS THAT IT HAD BEEN RAISED UP..HIT THAT PIECE OF CONCRETE......IT COMES TO AN ELBOW AND THE OTHER PIECE FELL OFF......AND THAT'S WHY THEY WERE SEPARATED." INVESTIGATORS SAY WHILE THEY ARE NOT CERTAIN IT IS LIKELY...THE EXHAUST PIPE BECAME DISCONNECTED WHEN THE OLD POOL HEATING UNIT WAS DISASSMBLED.......AROUND DECEMBER 27TH....MEANING CARBON MONOXIDE WAS BUILDING UP IN A LARGE AREA FOR AROUND A MONTH. INVESTIGATORS SAY THEY SHOULD BE FINISHED WITH THEIR INVESTIGATION BY FRIDAY.
Return to Story IndexC-O TASK FORCE
IT WANTS TO EXPAND THE REQUIREMENTS ON CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS. THE GROUP MADE UP OF EMERGENCY RESPONDERS, DISASTER OFFICIALS AND HEALTH CARE WORKERS WANTS TO ADD TO THE NUMBER OF PLACES WHERE A CO DETECTOR WOULD BE REQUIRED. IN ADDITION TO APARTMENTS, DORMS, CABINS AND ROOMS FOR RENT, COMMITTEE MEMBERS SAY HOTELS, MOTELS, DAYCARES AND LONG TERM HEALTH CARE FACILITIES SHOULD ALSO HAVE THE DEVICES. COMMITTEE MEMBERS SAY LEARNING ABOUT THE DANGER IS ALSO IMPORTANT. ALTHOUGH A DEATH AT A HOTEL SPARKED THIS MOVEMENT, FIRST RESPONDERS SAY A CARBON MONOXIDE LEAK IN YOUR HOME IS MUCH MORE LIKELY TO OCCUR.

Return to Story IndexJIM BOONE
IT'S THE BOTTOM OF THE BLOCK TIME FOR THE TOP SPORTS STORY WITH MARK MARTIN. AFTER SERVING AS THE HEAD COACH FOR TWO DIFFERENT NCAA DIVISION II SCHOOLS AND A PAIR OF DIVISION I PROGRAMS, BOONE IS BACK IN THE MT. STATE AS THE HEAD COACH FOR THE MEN'S PROGRAM AT WEST VIRGINIA WESLEYAN COLLEGE...RECENTLY I HAD A CHANCE TO GO CATCHING UP WITH JIM BOONE...
Return to Story IndexJIM BOONE Boone: "It's amazing you know how much things change, but at the same time not to use an old phrase - how much they've really stayed the dame. Great basketball, league tremendous coaches tremendous talent." Martin: "Boone became am assistant at Charleston Southern for one season before getting his break at Division II Cal, Pa. Boone: "Interesting thing is we had a Vice President who had worked at WV Tech and he was a big fan of Joe Retton and Fairmont. He wanted to build the same kind of program. He had a vision and fortunately he looked at me and said you tell me what we need to do and we're going to do it." Martin: He had a Hall of Fame career at Cal, including two NCAA Division II Final Four apppearances. His next move was NCAA Division I Robert Morris in the season of 1996-97. Boone: "Took a program that had bee on the losing skids and by the fourth year had them playing for the conference championship on ESPN so that was pretty neat." Martin: In 2000, Boone took his coaching talents to the MAC at Eastern Michigan, a some times trying yet rewarding experience." Boone: "Wouldn't trade my days from Eastern Michigan for anything. did we inherit a hornets nest? Absolutely. It was challenging to say the least but I learned a lot about myself, about coaching. Having gone through that it made me a better coach and a better person." Martin: Boone returned to D-II coach at Tusculum, TN. While there he had the opportunity to coach his son Jimmy...a current Wesleyan assistant." Boone: "He had a great career very solid. Part of the most successful...won more games, wen to the NCAA Tournament...you name it and Jimmy was a part of all that. Memories that will last a life time." Martin: Now more than 25 years after leaving the West Virginia Conference, Boone is thrilled for the opportunity in Buckhannon. Boone: "To do what you love doing, coahcing basketball, teaching and working with kids and to do it where you're from, where you grew up, where you have family, where you call home is really special. It's awesome to be back." AT THE MOMENT, BOONE'S BOBCATS ARE SIXTH IN THE WEST VIRGINIA CONFERENCE AT 9-AND-6...WESLEYAN IS 13-AND-6 OVERALL...COMING UP IN SPORTS, PLENTY OF HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL TONIGHT INCLUDING A SHOWDOWN WHERE A COACH TRIES TO HIT QUITE A MILESTONE...PLUS, AN AREA HIGH SCHOOL HAS NAMED ITS NEW HEAD FOOTBALL COACH...THAT'S LATER, HERE ON EYEWITNESS NEWS...
