New Castle Inmates Transferred To Make Room For Riot Suspects April 28, 2007 09:13 PM
NEW CASTLE, Ind. - Prison officials have transferred a total of about 220 inmates from the New Castle Correctional Facility in the wake of Tuesday's riot.
The decision was made in part to free up room in segregation units for inmates who took part in the disturbance.
Officials say eighteen inmates who had been in segregation cells at the New Castle prison were transferred to the Miami Correctional Facility near Kokomo.
Officials had earlier moved about 200 inmates to other prisons after watching videotapes of Tuesday's disturbance. About 500 inmates from Arizona and Indiana took part in the riot, damaging housing units, burning mattresses in a courtyard, breaking windows and damaging sinks and toilets.
