After her daughter hadn’t been seen for over an hour at Walmart, the mother panicked. For hours she searched frantically, until she made a horrifying discovery

After her daughter hadn’t been seen for over an hour at their shared workplace, Walmart, one panicked mother alerted her colleagues.

For hours, she searched frantically — until she made a chilling discovery.

On October 19, a horrific tragedy unfolded at the Walmart Bakery in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

After not seeing her 19-year-old daughter for over an hour, a mother began to search for her inside the store. She made attempts to call her daughter, only to find that her phone was unreachable.

In desperation, she reached out to the on-site administration for assistance in locating her loved one. After a frantic search, it was reported that the mother opened an oven, only to discover her daughter’s ”charred remains.”

Needless to say, the shocking discovery left everyone involved in utter disbelief.

Imagine the horror her mother must have felt when she opened the oven door after someone had pointed it out to her.

“We are heartbroken, and our deepest thoughts are with our associate and their family. Our focus remains on taking care of our associates and making sure they have the support they need,” a Walmart spokesperson told Newsweek in a statement.

Had big dreams

According to police updates, the deceased young woman in question “was located in a large walk-in oven belonging to the store’s bakery department.”

As the investigation continues, the store will remain closed until further notice. In a show of solidarity and remembrance, flowers have been placed on a pole in the store parking lot.
