The mother of an 11-year-old boy who died in a carbon monoxide incident at a Regina apartment building says her son’s death could have been prevented.

Marina Hills says she had been trying to reach her husband and son for hours before returning home and discovering something was wrong. Emergency crews were called, but her son, Henry Losco, was pronounced dead at the scene. His father was taken to hospital and continues to recover.

Fire officials have confirmed the incident was caused by a carbon monoxide leak linked to service equipment inside the building. A multi-agency investigation is ongoing.
