AFC Cable Workers On Hushed Strike
Some 30 workers for the AFC Cable Company in the New Bedford Business Park are on strike, though their reasons remain unclear.
The strike began earlier this week, and the workers and Teamsters Local 59 representatives are staying tight-lipped over their demands.
The demonstrators were seen wearing signs around their necks, with the words "on strike, AFC, Teamsters Local 59" printed on the signs.
Phone calls to AFC Cable have not been returned.
A union representative on scene says they will provide more information on the strike when they're ready to release it.
