Nashville, October 23 (RHC)-- In the U.S. state of Tennessee, a striking United Auto Workers' union member was hit by a car and killed outside the General Motors plant in Spring Hill where workers were maintaining an active picket line. 

The UAW said in a statement that 55-year-old union member Roy McCombs “tragically lost his life on a picket line standing up for a better life for himself and his coworkers.” 

The UAW’s strike is approaching its 40th day.  Workers remain on strike as they vote on a tentative agreement between the union and General Motors reached on Saturday.  It is the longest national strike at GM by the United Auto Workers in nearly 50 years.
