On Tuesday, May 17, a man who was working as a warehouse manager suffered severe carbon monoxide poisoning.
Darren Showe, aged 48 of Falling Waters in West Virginia, was working at B.P. Lesky Distributing Co. at 120 Western Maryland Parkway near Hagerstown. No one is exactly sure about what happened, although the family has heard a few different versions about what went wrong. Maryland Occupational Safety and Health is investigating the incident and cannot discuss any details until the investigation is completed.
Showe was flown to R Adams Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore in a critical condition and although his oxygen levels have improved he still has a fever and according to his sister, Suzanne Sigler, although he opens his eyes he does not appear to see them, but has what she calls a dead stare. Doctors say although there have been signs of improvement he still is not out of the woods.
