AK Steel wins temporary restraining order
Well, it seems the AK Steel strike is still on and still smoldering.
Business First of Columbus
A Butler County judge granted a 14-day restraining order Thursday that limits picketing by union workers at AK Steel Corp.
The company asked the court to place limits on picketing outside the company's Middletown Works in southwest Ohio between Cincinnati and Dayton, blaming the union for intimidation and harassing and coercive behavior.
The union is also prohibited from threatening or intimidating people or sprinkling nails on the roadway. The union claims they weren't doing anything.
