Hi,
I am not sure if I can use the definite article before 'worker'; my reasoning is that it is the worker / the fatality we mentioned in the first sentence. Is it ok?
'In December 2014, the news media reported on a single-fatality accident that occurred at Highland Mining Company, a subsidiary of Patriot Coal Corporation (Patriot Coal), in the US. The worker was struck by a coal hauler and died at an underground coal mine in Kentucky.'
(I am the author of the sentences.)
Thanks a lot!
