Still no info on what caused it.
It is usually an incorrectly burning gas stove or appliance.

A 25-year-old man has died and several others are receiving medical treatment after a gas leak at a restaurant in Sydney's north-west.
Fire and Rescue NSW said "extremely high levels" of carbon monoxide were detected at the scene.
Hazmat response specialists have declared the scene safe and air quality samples will undergo further testing.
NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Gavin Wood said early indications suggested the deceased was employed at the restaurant as a cleaner.
"At that time the five police officers have attempted CPR on that male, to the point where they felt there was something a little amiss in terms of the environment they were in, including an odour," Assistant Commissioner Wood said.
