A Fiat Chrysler employee who worked at the company's Warren Truck assembly plant in Michigan died Wednesday of COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, United Auto Workers union President Rory Gamble said in a statement. Amid pressure from the UAW to protect the health of members, the Big Three US carmakers — FCA, Ford, and General Motors — announced last week that they would close all North American plants to curtail the spread of the coronavirus.
"One of our members at FCA Warren Truck in Michigan passed away today due to the Coronavirus," the statement read. "On behalf of myself and the entire International Executive Board, I want to extend our sincerest sympathies to the family and friends of our dear member." In the statement, Gamble added that "today FCA officials sent home the few remaining Mopar workers at the parts-distribution center in Center Line, Michigan, after at least one employee tested positive for the virus." That facility, Gamble said, was being operated by paid volunteers and is being deep cleaned.
Guess he wasn't over 80.
