By    |   Monday, 02 June 2014 06:40 AM EDT

A Dunkin' Donuts carbon monoxide scare evacuated a New York location last week when a customer just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

Authorities say an ambulance technician wearing a carbon monoxide detector entered the store in Carle Place, New York, at around 4 a.m. Friday, according to The Associated Press.

The tech's detector went off, indicating high levels of the poisonous gas.

The technician hustled the employees out of the fast-food joint and notified authorities. An investigation found a vent in one of the ovens was the problem.

Carbon monoxide is odorless and colorless, and prolonged exposure can be fatal.
