Funeral Parlor Employee Accidentally Cremated on HWN FLASH
Funeral-Parlor-Employee-Accidentally-Cremated-on-HWN-FLASH
According to the Mabopane Police Department, 48-year old Pitso Nyaope decided to take a nap on a stretcher after working for sixteen hours straight. An employee of the Ubuntu Funeral Parlor died this morning, after being accidentally cremated by one of his coworkers.
 
While he was sleeping, another employee mistook him for the corpse of a 52-year old car accident victim and carried him to the crematory.
 
Before anyone could notice the mistake, he had already been exposed to temperatures ranging between 1400 to 1800 degrees Fahrenheit and reduced to ashes. Jenna Nkomo, one of Pitos’s coworkers, says she heard him scream for about 15 seconds after the crematory was activated.
 
At first, we didn’t understand where the sound was coming from. When we realised what was happening, it was too late. We shut down the heating system, but he was already dead.
 
Ms. Nkomo claims that the young coworker who caused the accident was a new employee, and had forgotten to check for the toe tag to make sure he had the right body.
 
Jenna Nkomo says she heard the victim scream in agony as the crematory was reducing him to ashes.
The police has opened an investigation to determine the exact circumstances surrounding Mr Nyaope’s death.
 
Investigators have not ruled out the possibility of filing criminal charges against the employee who caused his death.
 
The young man could possibly be accused of criminal negligence causing death.
