cereal factory worker tragically lost his life inside an industrial oven after becoming "trapped" in a horrifying accident, police have reported.
Nicolas Lopez Gomez, who was known professionally as Edward Avilawas, di£d at the Glister Marylee Cereal Plant in Perryville, Missouri, when he found himself stuck inside a massive oven last Thursday, June 26.
Authorities have stated that the 38-year-old was power-washing the machine from the outside when he somehow ended up inside the oven. His shocked colleagues immediately dialled emergency services upon realising Gomez was trapped.
Sadly, less than 20 minutes after the arrival of emergency services, he was pronounced de£d. The police are still unsure how Gomez became trapped in the oven and do not suspect any foul play.
At the time of the dreadful accident, the oven was not operational, leaving it unclear what injuries the worker may have sustained.
The Glister Marylee factory produces cereals for well-known suppliers such as Walmart, Sam's Club and Albertsons, reports the Mirror.
This heartbreaking incident comes just eight months after the remains of 19-year-old Gursimran Kaur were tragically discovered inside the walk-in oven of the Walmart she worked at in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Her body was found on October 19 by her distraught mother, who had grown worried after her daughter had been missing for over an hour.
Kaur's mother went to the bakery section to search for her daughter when a colleague noticed a "leakage" coming from the walk-in oven.
In a heartbreaking turn of events, the mother discovered her daughter's burnt body when she opened the door. Emergency services were summoned to the scene where they confirmed Kaur's de@th inside the oven.
