Lincoln Inmate Injured In Assault

The investigation continues today into the Monday morning assault at the Lincoln Correctional Center.

The Nebraska Department of Correctional Services says an inmate was hospitalized with serious injuries after being assaulted by another inmate in a cell shared by both men.

Corrections says a staff member reported seeing one of the men repeatedly stomp on the head and torso of his cellmate.

The inmate responsible for the assault was placed in restraints and escorted out of the area.

The injured inmate was checked out by medical staff and transported to the hospital.

Reports will be provided to the Lancaster County Attorney for any charging decision.

The corrections disciplinary process will be utilized with sanctions, such as loss of good time, applied according to the rules and regulations.
