Youngstown, Ohio - Three Killed as Guards Open Fire on Striking Steel Workers
Our information, thus far, on the Massacre at Youngstown comes from two Pittsburgh newspapers which are clearly hostile to the striking steel workers and their supporters. What we know so far is that, according to a reporter on the scene, the first shot may have been fired by the supervisor of the company guards, which supervisor is now chief of Police in East Youngstown:
...T. J. Kinney,chief of police of East Youngstown, has resigned and his place has been taken by James M. Woltz, safety director of the Tube company. Woltz, formerly a postoffice inspector, has been in charge of 100 guards at the Tube Company's East Youngstown plant for the past week. It is said Woltz fired the first shot, but a later report had it that a guard precipitated the trouble...
From The Gazette Times of January 8, 1916:

SIX BLOCKS BURNED IN EAST YOUNGSTOWN
