One Officer has Urine Thrown on Him, Second Officer Punched in the Mouth

Coxsackie, NY – A 32 year old inmate who is scheduled to be released in less than a year, threw urine on one officer from his cell and attacked a second officer after being frisked for contraband at the maximum security correctional facility.

An officer conducting rounds during evening recreation, walked by the inmate’s cell and he threw urine smelling liquid through the cell door window from a water bucket, striking the officer in the leg.  After the cell door window was secured, additional staff responded and removed the inmate from the cell and frisked him for contraband in the unit shower.  FULL PRESS RELEASE
