Violence Monday night among juvenile offenders at Spring Creek Youth Services Center in Colorado Springs caused “significant damage to the facility,” according to Colorado Springs police, but no one was injured.
Officers received a call around 7:30 p.m. Monday about youths throwing tables and chairs and destroying property at the detention center at 3190 E. Las Vegas St., police spokesman Sgt. Jason Newton said.
Some juvenile inmates had been detained by guards at the center when police arrived, but after giving a verbal warning, police used pepper spray to contain those involved, according to the case report.
The incident was a matter of “the kids being out of control,” Newton said, but was not defined as a riot.
