16 Inmates Rushed to Hospital After Being Hit by Lightning in Ohio Prison The lightning strike that sent 16 inmates to hospital at the Grafton Reintegration Center in Ohio is a grim reminder that even behind bars, humans are not immune to the elements.
The incident has sparked a mix of prayers and jokes online, but beneath the surface lies a more serious question: can prisons truly prepare for such events?
At least one inmate was flown by helicopter to a regional medical center, while seven others remain hospitalized. Online reactions failed to raise a crucial point: shelter in place protocols.
