GLENVILLE, N.Y. -- Carbon monoxide poisoning killed a Glenville couple, after police said their gas generator leaked fumes into their home.

Glenville police said Ralph and Mary Fazio died early Saturday morning. Police said the carbon monoxide filtered into the couple's home from a generator in the garage.

A family member called police after discovering Ralph Fazio unresponsive in the living room. Mrs. Fazio died in an upstairs room, while her husband was pronounced dead on his way to the hospital.

"It's an extremely unfortunate, extremely tragic accident. We feel terrible for the family, and we just send our condolences to the family," said Glenville Police Sergeant Stephen Janik.

State Emergency Management Officials are warning people against putting generators anywhere in their homes. They say the only safe place for them is outside.

Thursday's ice storm knocked out power not only to area homes, but also to traffic signals, and that may be to blame for a two car crash in Glenville.

Police say Matthew Richardson and John Lawinait collided at the intersection of Routes 5 and 890. Richardson's Nissan rolled over, landing on the roof. There's no word on either man's condition at this time.

Police are reminding people to treat intersections with no traffic lights as all way stops, to prevent such accidents.

Also in Glenville, crews worked in freezing temperatures to put a fire out. Fire officials on the scene say the family of five was not injured.

This was the second of two fires in the area. Crews were fighting another fire before getting called to this one. There is still no word on what caused this fire.

"There's been no power in the area, and we've got two fires in this area. We know one was caused by a generator."

The Fire Coordinator reminded residents to be careful in the area when trying to heat their homes. The coordinator says there was a fireplace in the home, but it's unclear whether it was the starting point for the fire.
