Dr. Bob Marshall, the assistant director of the Rhode Island Health Department, said that he got a call from the regional Poison Control Center informing him of the death. The center covers Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
Marshall said that he was told two children were in an idling vehicle to stay warm while their parents shoveled. But the vehicle's tailpipe was blocked by snow and ice. The children were taken to a hospital where one died.
