On Wednesday evening, five correction officers were injured in an attack by inmates at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in Lancaster, Massachusetts. Two officers sustained multiple stab wounds, while three others were injured during the response to the incident. All five officers were hospitalized, with at least one suffering injuries to the back and head. The Massachusetts Correction Officers Federated Union criticized the prison's safety measures, stating, 'ENOUGH! How much more must our members endure before you decide to keep them safe?'

State officials are reviewing security protocols in light of this incident.
