Tragic Death of Teen in Halifax Walmart Oven Sparks Investigation

Gursimran Kaur, found dead in a bakery oven, leaves family and community seeking answers as police probe continues.

Gursimran Kaur, a 19-year-old employee at Halifax Walmart, was found dead in a bakery oven on October 19, discovered by her mother who also worked at the store.
The Halifax Regional Police describe the investigation as complex and ongoing, cautioning against speculation while they determine the cause and manner of death.
Walmart employees and TikTok users have expressed doubts about the possibility of Kaur accidentally locking herself in the oven, suggesting she may have been pushed.
The Maritime Sikh Society has raised nearly $200,000 to support Kaur's family, helping bring her father and brother from India to Canada for the funeral.
Nova Scotia's Department of Labour has lifted a stop-work order on the bakery, but the Walmart store remains closed as the investigation continues.
