It is unclear, however, how and when she became stuck inside. Queensland Fire and Emergency Service personnel had to use power tools to cut the bin open to get the body out, according to a video shared by a local reporter.
“We are aware of a tragic incident in the carpark outside Stockland Burleigh Heads and continue to assist police with their investigation,” the mall’s spokeswoman said as cited by news.com.au.
The woman was in her 30s, according to local media reports, but authorities have yet to officially identify the victim and prepare an autopsy report.
