BUFFALO GROVE – State Sen. Adriane Johnson is reminding Illinois residents to test, inspect expiration dates, change the batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and replace any broken or expired devices.In 2014-2018, the National Fire Protection Association reports almost three out of every five home fire deaths in the U.S. resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or nonworking smoke alarms.'Fires can happen in the blink of an eye and result in abrupt, tragic loss,' said Johnson, D-Buffalo Grove.
