A high-ranking Missouri official at the Potosi Correctional Center was hospitalized after being stabbed by a convicted murderer, a spokeswoman for the Department of Corrections said yesterday.

The victim's name and condition were not released, but spokeswoman Wanda Seeney said the victim is a unit manager at the prison about. He was hospitalized in St. Louis with several stab wounds. The stabbing happened about 8:45 a.m. Monday. Seeney said the circumstances surrounding the stabbing were not immediately clear. Also uncertain was what weapon the inmate used to commit the crime.

The suspect is Roderick Nunley, who is on death row for a conviction out of Jackson County for first-degree murder, rape, kidnapping and armed criminal action. Since the stabbing, he has been placed in a segregated confinement unit at the prison. The inmate apparently acted alone, Seeney said. Still, prison officials suspended movement at the institution.
