New York Post • • business
Key Points:
- A Vons supermarket in Granada Hills, Los Angeles, faced criticism after a customer died in the store’s bakery aisle, yet the store remained open for hours with the body still present.
- Employees attempted CPR but were unsuccessful, and corporate management instructed staff to block the deceased shopper’s body with shopping carts rather than closing the store.
- The victim’s family was forced to wait inside the store for four hours while other customers continued shopping, causing distress among employees and observers.
- Vons’ parent company, Albertsons, expressed condolences and stated they cooperated with emergency responders and law enforcement but declined to provide further details out of respect for the family.
