An Oklahoma City jail inmate who was killed by authorities last week while allegedly holding a detention officer hostage had a "makeshift weapon" to the officer's throat before he was fired upon, authorities said Monday.
Williams, 34, was part of a band on inmates who took a detention officer hostage Saturday on the 10th floor of the Oklahoma County Detention Center. The floor is where the jail's most difficult inmates to manage are assigned. Y The Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office requested assistance from the police department as the chaos unfolded.More Related News
