Five Inmates Injured in Massive Solano Prison Fight
Five Inmates Injured in Massive Solano Prison Fight
Written for the web by Jason Kobely, Internet News Producer
Prisoners at California State Prison, Solano were under lockdown Saturday following a prison melee earlier in the day involving 91 inmates.
Prison officials said two rival gangs of white and Latino inmates started the fight in the prison yard Saturday morning.
Five inmates were taken to the hospital with slash or stab wounds. Three were treated and released back to the prison and another is expected to be returned to his cell Saturday night, Solano Prison Lt. Tim Wable said.
The remaining prisoner may require surgery, Wable said.
Visitors at the prison at the time of the fight were quickly escorted out and visitors hours were cancelled for the rest of the day. The prisoners remained under lockdown Saturday and there was no immediate word when that restriction would be lifted.

CSP Solano in Vacaville Incident Today - Any information?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Has anyone heard anything about the shooting incident a short while ago at Solano. From the little information I received it appears that families were visiting in the Level 3 visting room and heard a barage of gun fire. The incident happened on Yard 1. Two ambulances with a police escort were seen leaving the prison just a little after 11:00 this morning.

From another board:
Just to let you know my mother works for the prison in Vacaville where this happened. I contacted her tonight after reading this post. There were seven people taken to the hospital and there are 2 that are in very serious condition. She said there were over 100 people involved in the fight. She said it was the whites and the Latins that were involved.
Yard 1 and 2 are the yards that are on lock down right now and 3 and 4 are open.
The men that were taken to the hospital were all white. There were shots fired she said but it was only bean bags being used, not actual bullets so I hope this will also ease your worries a little more too.
I hope this gives you a little more info and able to ease some of your worries. If you guys have any more questions just PM me and I will see what I can find out for you.
