From Fox News: Three Virginia corrections officers were hospitalized Friday after an alleged coordinated attack by inmates affiliated with the violent MS-13 gang and another known gang, state Department of Corrections officials said in a statement.
The incident took place at approximately 9:45 a.m. at Wallens Ridge State Prison in Wise County. Officials said six inmates were involved in the assault.
Five of them are confirmed members of the MS-13 gang, originally from El Salvador, who were in the U.S. illegally.
All five had been convicted of violent crimes, including aggravated murder, first-degree murder, second-degree murder, and rape. The sixth inmate is a U.S. citizen and a confirmed member of the Sureño 13 gang, serving a sentence for second-degree murder.
“Five of the individuals responsible for this senseless attack should never have been in this country in the first place,” said Virginia Department of Corrections Director Chad Dotson.
The report clarifies that there were actually five officers who received medical treatment after the attack. Three were stabbed, and two others received minor injuries. Three have been treated and released, and two are still hospitalized in stable condition.
