Mass inmates seize guard at Dartmouth jail disturbance
About 300 inmates at Dartmouth House of Corrections held a guard hostage for around 40 minutes during a Sunday disturbance. Sheriff Hodgson said the unrest began around 3:15 PM in a housing unit and spread to a courtyard before ending about an hour later. Widespread damage led to the transfer of inmates to other jails that night.
