On Thursday of last week, authorities in Tahko, Finland, found the dead of two Kenyan women inside the rear of their food truck.
Catherine Anyango, 43, and her daughter Michelle, who is in her twenties, were discovered dead on February 9, one day after their relatives informed the police that they had gone out to sell samosas as usual in the town of Nilsiä a week earlier but had not returned home.
After wrapping up operations on the event day, the mother and daughter allegedly opted to seek shelter in the van to protect themselves from Tahko's subfreezing temperatures. As a result, police believe they died from carbon monoxide poisoning.
