injuries, though we do know that there are, at least, some injuries, the extent of those injuries, still remains to be seen and determined at this point. no information from transports from the prison but from the air and given the information we have learned through sources it appears most were in a formation to attempt to enter the prison suggesting that perhaps the inmates had taken control of some parts of the prison or extent of hostages in the prison meaning corrections officers taken hostage of what is extensive. that is the scene for most of the the day, the corrections officers, out in the prison yard not entering the prison and in clear information, on how many could be hurt. if anybody was transported from the scene and if the situation has come to a resolution. this news conference has now
