LYNN, Mass. — The Lynn Fire Department, which enforces state regulations on carbon monoxide detectors in the city's homes, found itself Saturday explaining why its own headquarters did not have detectors installed.

Two firefighters were hospitalized Friday after being overcome by carbon monoxide at the department headquarters on Western Avenue.

"It's a little strange that it happened at that location," said City Council President Tim Phelan.

The problem was discovered after Ladder Company 2 returned from a call and found one firefighter acting groggy. A second firefighter was overcome by fumes when he pushed up a ceiling tile in a second floor office.
