    Trench collapse kills worker By Michael Hasch, Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
    It was the fifth trench collapse in the region since November.

    American Enterprise Contracting Inc., of McKees Rocks, was fined by OSHA for a collapse that killed William Lee Steadman, 37, of Mt. Oliver, in December. William Partin, 39, of North Fayette, died and another worker was injured in a trench collapse last month in Washington County.

    One worker was injured in a November trench collapse in White Oak and a second was hurt earlier this month when a ditch collapsed in West View.
