MARIETTA - A 35-year-old man whose electricity was turned off by the power company was found dead in his home, apparently poisoned by fumes from a gas generator, authorities said. <br>
<br>
``When police and fire came on the scene, the generator was still running and the home was filled with carbon monoxide,'' Cobb County Police spokesman Dana Pierce said. <br>

Kenneth Thiel, who was found by a friend Wednesday, was a Georgia Power customer, and his power was turned off July 10 because of non-payment, utility spokeswoman Lolita Brown said.
