An inmate hanged himself inside his cell Thursday at the Mesa County Detention Facility, authorities said. Octavio Vargas-Herrera was found in his cell about 11:54 p.m. Thursday by a deputy, who was performing a routine security check, the Mesa County Sheriff's Office said Friday afternoon. Attempts to revive Vargas-Herrera failed. He was being held at the jail on charges of first-degree murder and a federal immigration hold.

The inmate was being held in the maximum security area in a cell by himself at the time. Read More. |
