Orange County Sheriff

A ten-day lockdown at the Theo Lacy Jail has been lifted.

The incident began on June 22 after an inmate attacked an OC Sheriff's Department deputy.  The deputy had been moving that inmate at the time the attack took place.  The victim sustained non-life threatening injuries.  He was, though, checked out by medical personnel at a local hospital prior to being released.

Theo Lacy Jail officials have not released specifics but they have said the deputy seemed to have taken a pretty good beating.  A total of four inmates participated in the attack.  The participating inmates sustained cuts and bruises.
