COXSACKIE — Three corrections officers and a sergeant were assaulted by an inmate at Coxsackie Correctional Facility Wednesday morning, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Corrections said Thursday. A sergeant was interviewing the inmate, Vaughn Avery, in a recreation room at 9:15 a.m. regarding a grievance when a struggle broke out, spokeswoman Linda Foglia said. “The inmate became agitated and struck the sergeant with his fist in the right side of the (sergeant’s) head,” Foglia said.

wyoJ, I don't think corrections.com wrote the story, they just reprinted it from the original publisher -- thedailymail.net
I am just incredulous to see that an article on corrections.com would have "guards" in the story lead. Thought it was just media folks who don't know better or don't care who still refer to COs and other corrections professionals as "guards". Wow.
