Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who was convicted of murdering George Floyd, was stabbed in federal prison by another inmate on Friday.
The incident happened at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson, Arizona.
The Bureau of Prisons said employees at the prison contained the incident and performed “life-saving measures.”
Chauvin’s lawyer, Eric Nelson, wrote in court documents in 2022 that his client should be kept away from other prisoners.
From Fox News:
The incident marks the second incident at the prison in around a year. In November 2022, an inmate at the prison's low-security camp attempted to shoot a visitor in the head, but the weapon was misfired.
