TIPTON, Mo. (AP) — A mid-Missouri prison is on modified lockdown after some upset inmates caused a disturbance in housing units overnight, a corrections official said Thursday. No one was injured in the disturbance at the Tipton Correction Center, said Missouri Department of Corrections spokeswoman Karen Pojmann. The incident began between 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. Wednesday when some inmates refused to return to their housing units after recreation time and had to be escorted by officers, Pojmann said. Further confrontations were reported in three housing units but major damage, such as broken windows and damaged walls, was reported in only one unit. Special response teams from the prison and nearby jurisdictions were brought in and the situation was under control by 5:30 a.m. Thursday, she said. Read More. |
