Dublin family in hospital after gas poisoning in Liverpool hotel

Five family members have been treated for carbon monoxide poisoning after a suspected fault in a boiler at a four-star UK hotel.

They were staying at the Crowne Plaza in Liverpool when they fell ill.

The group from Dublin, who included a three-week-old baby, were taken to hospital.

Hotel bosses say the boiler was checked and issued with a safety certificate by gas inspectors last month.
