"They did tip over a lot of tables, set off some fire extinguishers, tear up some security cameras just to retaliate that they didn't like the meal they were served today at lunch," Sheriff Herzet said. According to Sheriff Herzet, reinforcements were called to the jail shortly after noon Sunday because around 50 inmates were refusing to go back to their cells. Read More. |
