Inmate dies in Oklahoma prison riot
One inmate was killed and 13 others were hurt in Oklahoma when a gang-related melee broke out in the gymnasium of a privately-run prison, with inmates flailing away with softball bats and other weapons.
About 50 to 60 inmates at the Cimarron Correctional Facility were involved, said Department of Corrections spokesman Jerry Massie. The prison was locked down yesterday and state Department of Corrections authorities went to the scene.
