Mexican prison brawl leaves 23 dead
More than 60 inmates have died during fierce fights at Mexico's often overcrowded and loosely run prisons in the past two years. Officials at the state-run prisons frequently complain that they are not equipped to handle violent drug traffickers who are being held on federal charges. Once a quiet state, Durango has seen an upsurge in cartel violence in recent years, both in its cities and its prisons.
