    A worker at US Steel Great Lakes Works in Ecorse, Mich., was killed on Saturday evening when run over by a semi-truck. According to reports, Heather Warren was directing truck traffic when hit by a truck operated by ALCO Transportation at Great Lakes Works Cold Mill Shipping. The incident is under investigation.

    The Ecorse plant has been the site of two other fatalities. In April 2014 a worker was killed when a crane flipped over; in December 2013 a worker died in a steel plant explosion.
