Inmates poison prison guards' food

MEXICO CITY (Reuter) - Fifteen Mexican prison guards needed hospital treatment after inmates who cook their meals spiked the food with drugs in a failed escape plan, local television reported.

None of the inmates at the prison in the north-central city of Zacatecas managaed to escape, but the guards were taken to the hospital, the Televisa network news program "24 Hours" reported.

Dr. Miguel Ramirez Aleman, who was interviewed on the program, said the guards could have suffered severe side effects from the barbiturates, including heart attacks.

Most of the guards were treated and released, although Televisa interviewed one from his hospital bed. He was barely coherent.

It is a tradition in the Zacatecas prison for inmates to prepare meals for the guards, Televisa said, but this apparently was the first time they had attempted to spike the food in an escape bid.
