Several injured in Matamoros prison riot | matamoros, injured, prison - Breaking News - Brownsville Herald
The first prison riot on BOTG in several years. It is interesting that prisioners have guns, and would rather use them to kill each other and settle gang scores than escape. Go figure?
MATAMOROS - At least two people are dead and dozens are injured during a riot at a Matamoros prison.
A Mexico City news agency says the riot started this morning at Centro de Readaptacion socieal (Cereso) de Matamoros, located in the community of Santa Adelaida on the out-skirts of Matamoros.
The riot began at 9 a.m. when a fight broke out between a group of inmates armed with guns. An hour later, authorities had not been able to enter the prison. At the time prison director Pedro Benavides said no one had been killed in the shooting.
The Brownsville Herald has learned two inmates are dead and 36 others were hurt. Their injuries are unknown.
Relatives of the inmates have been outside the prison, waiting to learn about the fate of their loved ones.
