Five 17-year-old offenders were transferred to New York's Monroe County Jail Monday after they were involved in a brawl at a nearby children's detention center Saturday that left four deputies injured, according to reports.
After a youth detention worker unsuccessfully attempted to break up the fight, jail deputies stepped in to help the worker. According to a release by the county, seven detainees were in a lounge area at the time of the incident and six of them allegedly attacked two deputies and a youth detention worker. Chairs were used as weapons during the fight and one person body-slammed a female deputy, the release added. Four jail deputies were injured and transported to area hospitals for treatment. Authorities said two teens also sustained injuries.More Related News
