GBI officials said deputies were moving an inmate, Albert Booze, to another area of the jail when the stabbing happened. Booze had made threats to harm himself and was being placed on suicide watch.

The attack took place Tuesday morning in the prison’s infirmary. The inmate was restrained by additional security staff, while other employees of the facility began “attempting life-saving first aid on the injured until paramedics arrived,” the Iowa Department of Corrections said in a statement.
Officers working the drop came across one of the suspects, 26-year-old Marquavious Parks, and one of the officers was shot.
