An employee died at the Subway restaurant location on Shawnee Mission Parkway near Nieman Road on Saturday.

According to police, two customers were in the restaurant and were unable to find any employees at about 8:37 a.m. Saturday. One of the customers searched the building and found a female employee face down on the floor and called police.

The two customers and a police officer attempted to revive the woman, but their attempts were unsuccessful.

A police sergeant at the scene said the employee suffered a medical issue and no foul play is suspected.

"It appears to be related to a medical condition and nothing criminal," according the sergeant.

Police tape surrounded the building until early Saturday afternoon as police continued to investigate.
