Several teenagers who were part of a riot at Woodland Hills Youth Development Center overnight appeared to have been taken into custody early Thursday morning.
Law enforcement officials in riot gear were seen taking at least six juveniles into custody shortly after 2:30 a.m., hours after some of them fled from their dorms at the Bordeaux complex.
No one appeared to have breached the fence around the facility.
The Tennessee Department of Children’s Services originally said six teenagers were out around 1 a.m., though more were seen running around the facility afterward.
DCS officials worked in the early hours Thursday to contain six juveniles who fled from their dorms overnight.[…]
Some of the teenagers were seen running around the complex with fire extinguishers and other tools in hand. Some sprayed the fire extinguishers into the air. Others used the tools such as pipes and sticks to try to open up other parts of one of the buildings on the campus.[…]
Initial reports indicated that five to six teenagers were trying to leave the facility, but none had gotten beyond its fence, the dispatcher said.
Thirty-two teenagers escaped from the detention center overnight on Monday night. Six of those escapees remained at large Wednesday night.
Early Thursday at Woodland Hills, law enforcement vehicles were stationed yards apart from each other outside the fence in case of a breach.
