Tecumseh State Prison
(KLZA)-- The Nebraska Department of Corrections is reporting that an inmate at the Tecumseh State Correctional Institution assaulted several staff members on Monday.
The report alleges the inmate was aggressive and started cursing at a staff member. The inmate then punched that person in the face. A second staff person who came to assist was also hit in the face and a third staffer was struck in the head, resulting in an injury requiring medical attention.
Once he was restrained, the inmate then spit on a fourth staff member while being escorted from the area.
One of the staff members was taken to the hospital due to their injuries.
Results of an investigation into the incident will be provided to the Johnson County Attorney for determination of criminal prosecution.
