JENSEN LA VENDE

Con­flict­ing ac­counts have emerged over the ar­rest of ten men out­side the East­ern Cor­rec­tion­al Re­ha­bil­i­ta­tion Cen­tre (ECRC) in San­ta Rosa yes­ter­day morn­ing.

Po­lice Com­mis­sion­er Al­lis­ter Gue­var­ro said the men were de­tained as part of an al­leged plot to mur­der law en­force­ment of­fi­cers, claim­ing they were found with a stolen ve­hi­cle and a re­volver. But act­ing Pris­ons Com­mis­sion­er Hay­den Forde dis­missed the claim, in­sist­ing the men were sim­ply wait­ing for an in­mate to be re­leased.
