Two Garland men likely died from carbon monoxide poisoning inside apartment, police say
Garland residents Arnulfo Escalante Lopez, 41, and Jose Anguiano Torres, 28, were found dead after police were asked to check on the men.
Two Garland men found dead inside an apartment Friday likely died from carbon monoxide poisoning, police said.
Garland police responded around 10 a.m. to an apartment in the 200 block of South Barnes Drive after someone called and said two men inside were unresponsive.
The victims, identified as 41-year-old Arnulfo Escalante Lopez and 28-year-old Jose Anguiano Torres, were both pronounced dead at the apartment.
Officers found a gas-powered generator inside, near where the men were found, police said. The generator was turned on and connected to extension cords, but it seemed to be out of gas, police said.
