CHAMPAIGN – Five University of Illinois students were lucky to escape with their lives after they smelled gas in their apartment and called the Champaign Fire Department. Officials discovered a lethal level of carbon monoxide in the air.
The incident happened Nov. 30, and city Neighborhood Services officials on Thursday condemned the apartment, No. 48 at 102 E. Gregory Drive, after an inspection revealed problems with how the gas furnace and water heater were vented.
