The Globe and Mail reports in its Monday edition a Suncor Energy employee has been killed at one of the company's oil sands sites, the second fatality among the company's work force this year. The Globe's Carrie Tait writes Suncor said an employee was "severely injured while working" Sunday and the company's emergency service personnel responded at around 11:30 a.m. The employee was taken to the Northern Lights Regional Health Centre in Fort McMurray and pronounced dead. It is working with the "appropriate authorities and will complete a full investigation into the cause of the incident," Suncor said. "This is devastating news and a tragic loss for family, friends and co-workers," Mark Little, Suncor's executive vice-president of its upstream operations, said in a statement. Suncor provided neither the employee's age nor gender. The name of the individual, Suncor said, is not being released but the company has informed the employee's family. It did not say how the employee was killed, or what the employee did. RCMP are investigating the death, a standard step, according to Suncor. "The Wood Buffalo RCMP responded to a sudden death at Suncor at 12:40 today," Const. Natasha Lytwenko said in an e-mail.
