A Hays Prison inmate was transported to a Rome hospital this morning after reportedly suffering a seizure. The inmate is expected to be fine.

AM1180 received reports of a Redmond Regional ambulance going through downtown this morning followed by a Hays CI van.

Again, being transported was an inmate with medical issues, reportedly a seizure, according to a very reliable source.

AM1180 wouldn't normally report this story, however with the recent violence that has occurred at this prison we feel it is neccessary to do so at this time to keep the community at ease.

Department of Corrections personnel are currently at the prison reviewing procedures and protocol, as well as addressing several issues, including broken/jammed locking mechanisms on cell doors.
