Gloversville, NY –

“Six people were hospitalized Monday after a carbon monoxide leak at a local church.

The leak took place at North Main Street United Methodist Church. The Gloversville fire chief said the people affected are lucky to be alive after his crew determined the leak had been going on for several weeks.

The source of the leak is unknown, but the chief said the church’s chimney was plugged, which played a factor. People had been getting sick at the church, but until now, no one realized it was a carbon monoxide leak.”
