Teen inmates set off sprinklers at Juvenile Justice Center

Posted: Updated:
CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) -

Teen inmates at the Cuyahoga County Juvenile Justice Center vandalized their sleeping areas over the weekend.

Officials say juveniles in two sleeping cells set off the sprinklers and damaged a window.

Now all the sleeping cells in five of the six pods are closed and the teens have to sleep in the common area on bunks.

They are still investigating, right now officials aren't sure if this was an attempt to escape.
