MARCY, N.Y. -- Four corrections officers are injured while escorting an inmate at the Mid-State Correctional Facility in Marcy. According to the New York State Correctional Officers Benevolent Association, it happened when officers were admitting Thomas Legette to the Special Housing Unit following a fight with another inmate.
