Eight inmates killed in riots at two prisons in Ecuador
Eight inmates died on Thursday as a result of two separate prison riots in the Ecuadorian provinces of Cotopaxi and Pichincha — four each in Latacunga and in the El Inca prison in Quito. Another ten people were injured and are receiving medical care. The authorities said they had identified the presumed participants in the unrest and plan to transfer them to the maximum-security El Encuentro prison in Santa Elena province.
