Three correctional officers and an inmate were injured Thursday at a state prison east of Sacramento in a string of incidents that began with a stabbing and heightened when the guards were jumped by 10 inmates, officials said.

Around 10:15 a.m., two inmates began stabbing a third with a jail-made blade in one of the high-security yards at New Folsom Prison in Represa (Sacramento County), the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said.
