Fumes lead to fatality (AUDIO)

November 29, 2011 By WRN Contributor

Only minutes elapsed between the 911 call a Horicon woman made and the time it took for a Dodge County Sheriff’s deputy to respond to an industrial accident at Vivid Image in Theresa Monday afternoon. Cindy Persha’s 65-year-old husband Thomas and 55-year-old Ramon Torres of Horicon were lying on the floor of a coating room overcome by chemical fumes. After her phone calls were not returned she went to the plant and called 911. Thomas Persha was taken to Hartford Memorial Hospital where he’s recovering, but Torres died at the scene.
