Halifax police say a 19-year-old woman who died in a Walmart bakery on Saturday was found in a large, walk-in oven when first responders arrived at the scene in the city’s west end.

In a news release Tuesday, police investigators said their work was in the early stages and it remained unclear if any wrongdoing was suspected in the case.

“It is important to note that the investigation has not yet reached a point where the cause and manner of death have been confirmed,” police said in their statement.
