The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has cited the company that owns the University Avenue Tim Hortons following the death of a 3-year-old boy.
An OSHA representative said it is not providing details about violations or penalties yet. The citation served as a response to the death of Bryce Raynor who fell through an unsecured grease trap ground lid behind the restaurant in July.
OSHA said it is also investigating what hazards employees were exposed to.
Raynor was the son of a woman who worked at the coffee shop. His death sparked new grease trap regulations in Monroe County and pending state legislation.
