The police have found the man who, they say, installed or helped to install the boiler for a residential heating system that is implicated in the deaths of three people from carbon-monoxide poisoning.

He is Alex Menendez-Mendez, 23, an illegal immigrant from Guatemala, Maj. Stephen Campbell, commander of the Police Department Investigative Division, said yesterday.

In an interview with detectives, Menendez-Mendez “admitted that he … did in some way participate in the installation,” Campbell said. But Campbell would not divulge what Menendez-Mendez said he did in the installation and whether he did it alone.http://www.projo.com/ri/providence/content/Monoxide_Probe_01-12-08_9P8JBTM_v11.2517024.html
