Family Mourns Unexpected Death of Colorado Springs Amazon Worker on First Night of Job
Devanna Dunson, a 29-year-old mother of two, unexpectedly died from cardiac arrest during her first night on the job at an Amazon facility in Colorado Springs on Friday, November 6. Dunson, who had recently moved to Colorado, was found unconscious in a restroom on the fifth floor of the facility. First responders attempted CPR but were unsuccessful. Her family, originally from Kansas City, Mo., is grappling with the sudden loss, noting that heart problems have affected their family for decades. Lisa Dunson, Devanna's mother, expressed distress over Amazon's initial lack of communication, stating that the company only reached out hours after The Gazette inquired for a statement. Amazon spokesperson Louie Tran later issued condolences and stated the company had reached out to offer resources.
