The News-Times

DANBURY, Conn. — Carbon monoxide from a malfunctioning forklift forced the evacuation of a commercial buil 
ding on Great Pasture Road and sent two people to the hospital Tuesday afternoon.

The victims — a woman who worked at one of the businesses in the complex and a serviceman from Yankee Gas who reported the problem — were treated in the Danbury Hospital emergency room and released, a hospital spokeswoman said.

Danbury firefighters, ambulance crews, building officials and a fire marshal responded to 15 Great Pasture Road just after noon and evacuated 32 people who work at the site's 11 businesses.
