Ahh, the weekend fun continues! AP gets us another interesting piece, this one via PoliceLink.com. Read on:


HOBBS, N.M. - Some Lea County inmates set fires and broke toilets and windows after being told they would be allowed only one sausage at dinner. Jail officials said the inmates began yelling and banging on their doors in what they described in a news release as a "temper tantrum."

Officers from the Lea County Sheriff's and Hobbs Police departments were called in to restore control, and the jail was locked down after Tuesday night's incident.

Some 33 prisoners were involved, Warden Jann Gartman said.

While I'm sure the sausage was very, very delicious, lighting your cell on fire doesn't seem like the best way to offer your compliments to the chef.
