Eleven correction officers were injured this past week from multiple inmate attacks at Rikers Island Davoeron Complex in New York, the New York Daily News reported.

There were five attacks over the past week by gang members who gave officers broken ribs, concussions and other injuries, according to the New York Daily News, which obtained a copy of an internal incident report.

Thirteen inmates, 11 of whom are gang members of the Bloods, on Tuesday attacked four correction officers, one of whom suffered from a broken hand and ribs after being hit with a fire extinguisher.

Another attack occurred on March 19 with 13 gang members who punched the officers in the face and threw objects at them. There were at least three officers injured, the Daily News reported.

5. Get a job there, get attacked by inmates

Get an early disability retirement from NYC, claim any injuries and PTSD. Then start another career.
