"A prisoner is receiving treatment after an incident at HMP Frankland on Thursday morning. It would be inappropriate to comment further while police investigate."
"Police were alerted to an assault which had taken place within HMP Frankland in Durham this morning. A male prisoner suffered serious injuries during the incident and was transported to hospital. A police investigation is now under way into the circumstances of the incident."
"Huntley killed 10-year-olds Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman after they left a family barbecue to buy sweets in Soham, Cambridgeshire, on August 4 2002. He then dumped their bodies in a ditch. He is serving a life sentence with a minimum term of 40 years for their murders."
Ian Huntley, who murdered 10-year-olds Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman in Soham in 2002, was assaulted at HMP Frankland high-security prison on Thursday morning and sustained serious injuries requiring hospitalization. Durham Constabulary confirmed a prisoner was attacked and transported to hospital, with police investigating the incident. Huntley is serving a life sentence with a minimum 40-year term for the murders. This is not his first violent incident in prison; in 2010, robber Damien Fowkes slashed him with a homemade weapon, inflicting an 18-centimeter wound requiring 21 stitches.
