Investigation Summary

On May 21, 2013, Employee #1 of Walgreens Co., was clearing ice build-up off of a walk-in freezer door when he was called by the store manager to talk. While Employee #1 was talking to the store manager, the manager noticed Employee #1 was sweating and thought it odd because he was working in a freezer. Employee #1 began to slur some of his words while talking to the store manager and also tripped over his feet but did not fall. The store manager was concerned for Employee #1, so she directed him to the manager's office to sit down. While Employee #1 was entering the code in to the door pin pad he collapsed backwards into the store manager's arms and she set him down on the floor. 911 services were dispatched while certified employees performed CPR. Employee #1 was pronounced dead at the hospital.
