FOLSOM, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say an inmate died after being attacked in the recreation yard of a Northern California prison.
Corrections officials say staff used chemical agents to quell the incident after the attack Saturday at California State Prison, Sacramento.
Officials say despite life-saving measures, 33-year-old Nathan Marcus was pronounced dead shortly after 2:30 p.m.
Two fellow inmates are suspected of the death, which is being investigated as a homicide.
The suspects have been moved to a segregation unit during the investigation.
