NATCHEZ, Miss. (AP) - A Mississippi couple has been found dead in a home from what officials think was carbon monoxide poisoning.
Adams County Coroner James Lee told the Natchez Democrat that 61-year-old Tippie Proby Jr. and 65-year-old Alice Marie Thomas were found around 10 p.m. Sunday.
Lee said the couple was lying next to each other fully clothed in a small portable building in Natchez that had no electricity. The coroner said they had a small propane generator in the center of the house that was apparently used to run small appliances.
