MACON, Ga. — An inmate at Central State Prison was injured after a fight with another inmate on Wednesday.
The Georgia Department of Corrections said that two inmates were involved in a fight at the prison in Macon.
They said that one inmate was taken to a local hospital for treatment of injuries that were not life threatening.
They are investigating the incident, according to the Georgia Department of Corrections.
Central State Prison has seen other acts of violence and situations similar to this one over the past year.
In March 2025, three former prison guards were accused of beating an inmate and trying to cover it up.
Later that year, in June, three inmates at the prison were charged with stabbing another inmate.
Most recently, in December 2025, a guard who worked at the prison faced charges after falsely imprisoning four Department of Family and Child Services employees because he was mad about his child support payments.
