DETROIT - According to multiple sources, including local news site WDIV Detroit, two men are dead after an apparent love triangle and subsequent argument.

The reports state that a line worker at the Jefferson North Assembly Plant here confronted and then stabbed his union steward over a possible affair with his wife, who also works at the facility, say reports. The worker then fled the scene and drove to a nearby location where he shot himself. The union steward was pronounced dead on the scene.

The plant employs about 3,000 workers on two shifts. The 3-million-square-foot plant makes the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango full-size SUVs. Employees have been sent home, and the second shift for the day has been closed as well; Chrysler has made grief counselors available to any employees who need them.

In a statement, Chrysler said, "Chrysler Group is deeply saddened by events that occurred at its Jefferson North Assembly Plant this morning. Two employees were involved in an altercation inside the plant. One employee was stabbed and unfortunately pronounced dead at the scene. The Detroit Police Department is currently investigating. Production has been suspended for this morning and employees are being released."

The UAW also released a statement, noting, "The UAW expresses our deepest sympathy to the families of our members involved in the tragic incident today at Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant. Although many details are unknown at this time, we are deeply saddened by the loss of life."
