COALINGA – An inmate at the Pleasant Valley State Prison (PVSP) attacked two correctional officers on Thursday leaving both injured prison officials said. PVSP, located in Fresno County, houses approximately 3200 minimum to maximum security inmates.

The officer defending himself from the attack using his own fists. Prison officials said that the control booth officer activated an alarm and ordered all of the inmates in the dayroom to get down on the ground. The officer then notified all staff of the emergency.

During the struggle, the officer was able to grasp Lawrence and pull him to the floor. He wrapped his arms around Lawrence’s upper torso and held him to the ground using his body weight. The staff responded and assisted the officer by placing Lawrence in handcuffs and leg restraints.
