Two inmates have been put in solitary confinement for their roles in a revolt at the Indiana Reformatory in Pendleton in which seven employees and two prisoners were injured, authorities said. Five guards remained hospitalized in satisfactory condition and one inmate was in stable condition with stab wounds in the back, officials said. The employees and prisoners were injured in Friday’s uprising and three reformatory employees were held hostage--two for the entire 15-hour incident.
