Olive Garden Horror: Male Cook Dead After Committing Suicide by Thrusting His Head Into The Deep Fryer In The Kitchen
An Olive Garden cook is dead after committing suicide by thrusting their head into an air fryer.
In a horrific act, a male employee at Olive Garden committed suicide by thrusting their head into a deep fryer, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The incident occurred last Friday in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, where the man worked as a cook.
The Smoking Gun looked into the situation in which the man ended up dead from burn injuries.
Lauren Lesher, a Pennsylvania State Police spokesperson, explained the "incident was a suicide attempt and out of respect for the individual and their family, we do not release information."
She added that providing details could lead to the late cook's identity being discovered.
The publication reached out to the Olive Garden store, which closed for a few days following the incident, an effort to get more information on the situation.
"We are not able to disclose anything due to our privacy laws," the manager claimed.
Police and emergency workers came to the restaurant around 4 p.m. after 911 was called due to an employee removing his clothing and attempting to harm himself.
In audio from the county's fire and EMS service, a dispatcher can be heard saying, "I don’t have a lot of details, a lot of people screaming, some kind of a burn victim."
