Security cameras at Nebraska State Penitentiary captured footage of the moment the roof blew off the prison housing unit in a severe storm on 9 August.
No one was injured and everyone impacted was safely relocated according to the State Penitentiary.
“In corrections, we train for the unexpected,” Director Rob Jeffreys said, adding that “while many of our staff were facing damage to their own homes, they still showed up to keep their teammates, the population and Nebraska safe.”
