1/3/2010: Darwing Award Candidate

I believe we may have a potential Darwin Award candidate in Charlotte. A man was trying to save money on electricity, so he brought his outdoor grill inside his apartment and was using it to cook and heat the house. He had disabled his smoke and carbon monoxide detectors to keep them from going off. When his neighbor's carbon monoxide detector went off, the neighbor discovered the man and the man's wife unconscious and their two young children in their cribs crying. Luckily, the neighbor called 911 and the paramedics/firefighters were able to save the family.

I just wonder what goes through people's heads sometimes...
