Walmart Employee Found Dead in Bakery Oven

Gursimran Kaur, a 19-year-old Walmart employee, was found dead in a walk-in bakery oven in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on October 19, with police confirming her death is not suspicious and ruling out foul play. Her mother, who also worked at the store, discovered Kaur's charred remains after searching for her for an hour. Investigations have indicated that Kaur became trapped in the oven, and safety measures that should have prevented such incidents may have failed. The Halifax Regional Police, alongside the Department of Labor and the Medical Examiner Service, conducted thorough interviews and reviewed video footage but found no evidence of foul play. Walmart has closed the store for renovations following the incident, expressing condolences for the loss of Kaur and focusing on supporting its employees. A GoFundMe has been established to assist Kaur's family, who are seeking to bring her father to Canada for her funeral.
