British Columbia’s only maximum-security prison, the Kent Institute, is making headlines again after a clash between inmates earlier this week. Police are investigating an incident in which an inmate was injured and taken to the hospital. The altercation occurred at the Kent Institute Prison in Agassiz, Vancouver East, on Tuesday.
No other inmates or prison staff were injured during the incident. Correctional services have identified the attacker and taken appropriate action against him. This incident follows closely behind another event, just four days prior, when a group of inmates was charged in connection with the death of an inmate at Kent Prison.
Kent Institute, which opened in 1979, is the only maximum-security prison serving British Columbia and the Yukon.
