CHINO, Calif. — A California state prison near Los Angeles remained on lockdown Sunday after a riot sent 55 prisoners to hospitals and injured more than 250 inmates in all, prison officials said.
As many as 80 officers responded to the riot Saturday night, which involved about 1,300 inmates in seven dormitory-style barracks at the California Institution for Men in Chino, said Lt. Mark Hargrove, a prison spokesman. The riot was likely prompted by tensions between black and Latino prisoners, Hargrove said.
