CO is a colorless, odorless gas created by everyday items like furnaces, space heaters, stoves, dryers, generators and vehicles. Even small amounts built up indoors can cause CO poisoning, with symptoms including headaches or dizziness, nausea or vomiting, shortness of breath, fatigue, and confusion. Each year, more than 200 people in the U.S. die from CO poisoning. Here’s what you need to know to be safe and avoid a call for help in the New Year: Place working CO detectors with fresh batteries on every floor of your home, especially near bedrooms. Interconnected CO alarms are best; when one sounds, they all sound. Alarms are the first and most effective defense against CO poisoning. Never idle your car or use a portable generator in a garage — even with the doors open, CO fumes can still drift inside the main residence. One portable generator can produce the same amount of CO as hundreds of cars. Get your furnace and fireplace/chimney inspected annually and repaired or replaced if needed. Your heating system works hardest in winter, and that’s when leaks or blockages are the most dangerous. Keep outdoor vents clear of leaves, snow and ice to prevent backdrafts. If your CO alarm goes off or if multiple people or pets suddenly feel sick or lethargic in the same area of your home, get outside to fresh air immediately — and then call 911. Stay safe, be proactive, and don’t ignore early signs of fatigue or nausea indoors. For more information, visit the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. SCANDIA LIAISON: SGT. TYLER MARTIN | TYLER.MARTIN@WASHINGTONCOUNTYMN.GOV | 651-430-7842 W C 2 5 0 6 M O T O R I S T A S S I S T /D W I At 1:52am on Dec. 15, a deputy on routine patrol spotted a truck in a ditch with its hazard flashers on, spinning its tires as the driver tried to get the truck out of the ditch. The deputy approached the truck and asked the driver what had happened. The deputy immediately noticed the driver’s bloodshot, watery eyes and smelled the odor of consumed alcoholic beverage. The driver’s speech was slurred as he explained he had been heading home after being at a hockey game and then at a friend’s home nearby. After checking the driver’s license and finding it valid, the deputy asked how many drinks he had consumed. The driver said it had been two but wasn’t sure how long ago. The deputy then asked the driver to perform standard field sobriety test, which the driver failed, and a preliminary breath test, which registered 0.22 blood alcohol concentration — more than twice the legal limit of 0.08. The driver was arrested on suspicion of DWI and taken to Washington County Jail. S C A N D I A T R A I L N & O A K H I L L R O A D N M E S S A G E F R O M T H E S H E R I F F Congratulations to K9 Rookie on her recent retirement from the Coordinated Response Team, after five-and-a-half years of service alongside Sgt. Matt O’Hara. K9 Rookie was trained through Freedom Service Dogs in Colorado. Freedom Service Dogs primarily trains purpose-bred service dogs for veterans, first responders, and those with autism spectrum disorder. K9 Rookie was the first therapy dog partnered with law enforcement for this purpose in Minnesota, assisting CRT in its mission to connect people in crisis with the care they need and reduce mental health-related arrests and repeat calls for service. Through presentations, classroom visits, crisis calls, and regular follow-up visits with community members struggling with mental health concerns, K9 Rookie was an important part of the team. Through her calm, steadfast and loving demeanor, K9 Rooke provided support, companionship and a communication bridge to people in crisis as well as community members and even WCSO staff. To continue this important work, CRT’s Detective Julia Weegman is now the handler of Penny, a 10-week-old Golden Retriever who will begin her training soon. Congratulations Detective Weegman and welcome K9 Penny! Our team wishes all of our communities a happy, safe and healthy New Year.
