A man and a woman are said to have died of carbon monoxide poisoning after having sex in a car while the engine was running..
Keith
Payton, 40, and Salina Johnson, 40 of Williamsport, Pennsylvania, were
discovered about 9:30pm on Friday in a garage that had high levels of
carbon monoxide.
Police
speculated the two were having sex when they were overcome because
Johnson was partially clad. Marijuana and drug paraphernalia were found
in the car.
The car’s ignition switch was on but the vehicle had
run out of gasoline, they said. A kerosene heater also was on but it,
too, had run out of fuel.
The couple were pronounced dead at 10:45pm on Friday, but police said they had died sometime earlier.
The coroner ruled that carbon monoxide poisoning was the cause of death.
The couple were discovered by an individual sent by Payton’s brother, who leased the garage, to look for Payton.
Payton had gone to the garage to drop off something for his brother on Thursday.
It
comes after a New Jersey couple Jorge Rodriguez, 24, and Melissa
Pereira, 25, were found dead last month in a garage having also
succumbed to carbon monoxide poisoning.
