Over the weekend, prisoners took one of the wardens hostage at the Najayo Juvenile Center in demand for better living conditions and the suspension of alleged mistreatment. This led to a total of 14 injuries, four with buckshot and 10 with knife cuts. Tear gas was used to rescue the hostage. When questioned by reporters from Diario Libre, the director of the Juvenile Section denied that anything major had occurred, saying that "this is nothing major, the kids fight in all such centers."
