    Fatality at ArcelorMittal Indiana Harbor

    Written by Sandy Williams


    A steelworker at ArcelorMittal Indiana Harbor died early on Monday after a golf cart-style buggy he was driving went under a stationary scrap trailer. Alfred Candena, 61, a line operator, was working with coworkers to move a strip of steel broken off from a weld on the trailer. 

    “After initial response by coworkers, he was transported by plant ambulance and plant medical responders to a local hospital,” USW Local 1010 President Tom Hargrove told the NWI Times.
