PORT ANGELES, Wash. — An inmate yelled “Allah Akbar” while he attacked a Clallam County officer, KOMO News reported.
The Jan. 25 attack happened as the inmate exited his cell and hit a correctional officer with the top of a metal stool.
The officer was knocked unconscious and suffered a major concussion. He received 20 stitches.
The 27-year-old inmate, Addinjib Ibraham, said the Islamic phrase twice — once when he hit the guard and again after.
Authorities told the news site this was an isolated incident but they will continue to investigate.
