SIX people, including a one-year-old baby, evacuated their home in Kidbrooke last night due to carbon monoxide.

The two men, two women and two children left the property in Langbrook Road at around 7.20pm yesterday (January 17) after a carbon monoxide alarm sounded in the kitchen area.

They were all checked over by ambulance staff at the scene but were all said to be okay.

Firefighters turned off the gas in the two storey semi-detached house and opened the windows to get rid of the gas.

The crews from Eltham and Lee Green were there for around 90 minutes.
