HVAC Crashes into Pool Area at CO Resort, Injures Six

May 8, 2023
Eight Auora firefighters were training at the site when the incident happened.

Six people at a Colorado resort pool were injured, two seriously, when an HVAC system crashed into a pool area.

One victim suffered a brain injury, according to The Denver Channel.

As luck would have it, eight firefighters from Station No. 16 were already on scene conducting training at the Gaylord property, working in the stairwells there. This allowed a quick response of highly trained paramedics and EMTs who went right away to the pool to assist patients, according to a post on AFR's Facebook page.
