Louisiana officials are investigating a questionable death after a corpse was discovered in a walk-in freezer at a New Iberia Arby’s restaurant, officials said, according to FOX

The police department reports that the female victim was a staff member at the restaurant chain, reports KADN. The cause of her death hasn’t been determined as of yet. Leland Laseter, the New Iberia Police Capt, told the news outlet,

“So it was an employee that discovered the female deceased inside the cooler, (and) the deceased is an employee of the restaurant.” 

Preliminary details reveal that the police captain says the death is

“suspicious;”

however, foul play isn’t predicted and it could’ve been an accident.

“Nothing is set in stone yet,”

said the captain. 

“A situation like this is unusual, so we’re taking extra precautions during the investigation ….(We) pretty much have completed our process at the crime scene. After completely processing the crime scene… this does not seem like a homicide, it seems like an accident,”

Laster continued to say. 

Officials are waiting for the autopsy results to find out the cause of death.
