Surprised I haven't seen this story here yet. Her name was Gursimran Kaur; she burned to death.

I suspect the news hasn't spread outside the immediate area because it isn't clear at this point whether her death was murder, manslaughter, misadventure, or a very ugly suicide. If the investigation shows it was murder, the story may get more widely distributed. (For those not interested in clicking through to the article: the deceased was found inside an oven in the bakery department; according to the article, the police have not yet reconstructed the chain of events that led to her being there.)

Wow, I hope the full story comes out and they figure out how to avoid this happening again.

Dang, that's really terrible.

Why even have commercial ovens that big? They should be small enough that a person couldn't fit, and tilted so a person would fall out if they fell unconcious.
