Breakout attempt at Moundsville prison ends in blast
Four convicts in the state penitentiary attempted to blast their way out using blasting powder. Investigators found a powder charge forced into a wall crack near the dining hall, with a detonator wired from a guard tower. The blast failed to breach the 10 to 12 foot thick wall. New security measures were announced as the probe continues. Names of the suspects and source details were not disclosed.
