Straubing/Regensburg (dpa/lby) – After four prisoners attacked a prison officer in the Straubing prison, the Regensburg public prosecutor’s office is investigating dangerous bodily harm, threats and prisoner mutiny. “The investigations are ongoing,” said a spokesman for the public prosecutor’s office on Thursday.

The attacked prison employee was not seriously injured. The public prosecutor’s office did not want to provide any further information, citing an ongoing investigation. As reported by the Bayern media group, the incident had already occurred on Wednesday last week.
