Over $50K raised for the family of Walmart worker found dead in Halifax store

More than $50,000 has been raised to support the family of Gursimran Kaur, the 19-year-old woman who was found dead in a walk-in oven at a Halifax Walmart late last week.

A GoFundMe page, set up to help Kaur’s family during this difficult time, names her as the victim. The page also reveals that Kaur’s mother worked alongside her at the Walmart for the past two years.

On Saturday night, Kaur’s mother reportedly began searching for her daughter when she couldn’t reach her by phone. Tragically, Kaur was later discovered inside the store’s bakery walk-in oven.

The police have not released further details as the investigation is ongoing. A small memorial has been set up outside the closed store to honor Kaur’s memory.
