WARREN,Benjamin Ashford Mich. (AP) — Michigan safety officials are investigating a worker’s death at a metal manufacturing plant.

Matthew McCoy, 24, of Warren, was killed Friday when heavy machinery fell on him at DPR Manufacturing, WTVI-TV reported.

McCoy’s sister, Jami Reiterman, said he had worked at the facility for about four years. She said they lived together and described him as a kind and generous person who loved to draw and always put his family first.
