Federal prisons locked down after two MS-13 gangsters killed in altercation
2022-02-02
[FoxNews] Two other inmates were injured and transported to a local hospital for treatment.

America's 120 federal prisons are on lockdown after two inmates who were reportedly MS-13 gang members were killed on Monday in an altercation at a facility in Beaumont, Texas.

The fight broke out shortly before noon. Four inmates were transported to a local hospital where inmates Guillermo Riojas and Andrew Pineda were pronounced deceased.

Both Riojas and Pineda were members of the MS-13 street gang, according to the Associated Press.

"In an abundance of caution, the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) is securing our facilities as a temporary measure to ensure the good order of our institutions," Emery Nelson, a spokesperson for BOP, told Fox News Digital. "The BOP will continue to monitor events carefully and will adjust its operations accordingly as the situation evolves."

No staff members were injured during the fight.

Pineda, 34, was sentenced to 78 months in prison for racketeering and conspiracy. He was due to be released in 2024, according to BOP records.

Riojas, 54, was sentenced to 38 years in prison for carjacking and interfering with interstate commerce.

BOP Director Michael Carvajal informed Attorney General Merrick Garland earlier this month that he plans to resign.

#2  Base territorial behavior. Someone found out they were not as tough as they thought they were. Looks like someone supports the death penalty even if the state does not.
