GUATEMALA CITY (AP) - Rioting gang members fired dozens of gunshots, killing three inmates, and took two guards and two food service workers hostage in a southern Guatemala prison Monday, authorities said.
Hundreds of riot police stormed the penitentiary after four hours of rioting and freed the hostages, said prison system spokesman Nery Morales.
The three victims were shot dead by other inmates, Morales said.
