YONGIN, South Korea -- One person was killed and two others injured after being exposed to carbon dioxide in a Samsung Electronics Co. semiconductor factory southeast of Seoul, authorities said Tuesday.

They were found lying unconscious at around 2 p.m. in a firefighting facility filled with dense carbon dioxide in the basement of a production line in Giheung, Gyeonggi Province, about 34 km away from Seoul, according to local police and firefighters.

The gas leak killed a 24-year-old worker from a Samsung subcontractor. Two others are undergoing treatment at a hospital but remain unconscious, the police said. The authorities are working to find out the exact cause of the accident.
