In a CCTV footage, which has now gone viral, people can be seen running outside Mateus Atacarejo Mix supermarket in Sao Luis following a loud crash.
According to a DailyMail report, a total of eight people were injured in the accident and a staff identified as Elane de Oliveira Rodrigues was reported dead. The 21-year-old was crushed under the debris in the aisle where she was stacking products.
