BATON ROUGE — A third person has died in connection with this weekend's winter storm, this one due to carbon monoxide poisoning, the Louisiana Department of Health said Monday.

The 86-year-old man's death in DeSoto Parish comes after two hypothermia-related deaths in Caddo Parish.

According to LDH Secretary Bruce Greenstein, the man ran a generator inside his garage.
