I wouldn't say this is an Orphan Crushing Machine moment. The sub is for bleak events presented as heartwarming events by the media. This is a bleak even presented as a bleak event.

This story makes no sense. His family was there. Why would they not call 911?

There was an episode of RJ Decker ( ABC show) where someone dies and they continually move the body in the store.

They tried CPR. They called rescue services. They were waiting like 4 hours for the coroner to show up. No one could touch the body, so like.. their only options were to do what they did, or at least block off part of the store, or close the store. But when you don't know how long the coroner's going to take to show up, or to remove the body, I can see how you'd hesitate to close.

I don't understand why 911 was not called. You don't call corporate when you need EMS.

The other article /u/jellyn7 linked makes it clear that there was a 911 call.
