A truck driver was found dead in a cool room at a Shepparton warehouse this week.

The 50-year-old man was found dead at about 2.30pm on Wednesday, March 15 after his vehicle was spotted at the warehouse unattended and with the engine running two hours after he was supposed to finish work.

The cool room was used to store apples at the warehouse.

WorkSafe is investigating the incident, and it’s the third death at a workplace in 2023 across Victoria.
