Hydrogen Sulfide gas?
H2S is flammable and poisonous.

One other point I noticed was that of all the people living in the building, they picked this guy to talk to. Someone who get a text from Cohen, Trump’s lawyer.
Did Cohen text everyone in the building? I doubt it.
How/why did the NYT pick this particular person to interview?
