STORMVILLE – State prison
officials are continuing to investigate an incident involving several
inmates at Green Haven Correctional Facility on Sunday.
State Department of Corrections and Community Services spokesman Thomas
Mailey said the incident was brought under control by facility security
staff.
“One inmate required treatment at an outside hospital and was then
returned to the facility,” he said. While he provided no specifics
of the incident, a communication to emergency medical personnel Sunday
said an inmate had been stabbed in the abdomen.
“DOCCS has zero tolerance for violent acts in our facilities,’
Mailey said.
