HALIFAX, Nova Scotia (FOX Carolina) – After a Walmart employee’s body was found in an industrial walk-in oven, people across the internet are raising questions about how the tragic death could have happened.
On Oct. 19, Gursimran Kaur, 19, was found dead in the bakery oven at the Walmart store in Canada where she worked.
Kaur and her mother worked together at the store on Mumford Road. A GoFundMe organized by the Maritime Sikh Society for Kaur’s family, which raised nearly $200,000, said her mother became worried after not seeing the teen for an hour and found her “burned to death” in the walk-in oven.
The Walmart store has been closed since Kaur’s death.
According to CBC Canada, the Nova Scotia Department of Labour, Skills and Immigration issued a stop-work order at the bakery, but it later lifted the order. The agency said bakery operations can safely resume when Walmart chooses to reopen.
