Three American women who were discovered dead in a Belize resort hotel room last month died from carbon monoxide poisoning, their families said.
Arar, 26 — all from Revere, Mass. — were found dead inside their room at the Royal Kahal Beach Resort in San Pedro on Feb. 22.
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas that takes hundreds of lives each year, and makes even more people sick.
The Belize National Forensics Science Service executive director, Gian Cho, said Thursday that carbon monoxide poisoning killed three American women found dead while at a vacation resort there in February.
The families said they were told by US Embassy officials that the women "passed away as a result of acute carbon monoxide poisoning, likely caused by a faulty instant water heater.” The post Families of Revere women found dead in Belize hotel room speak out after learning cause of their deaths appeared first on Boston.
