TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Prison officials in Florida cited a security threat in canceling visitation at most of its 148 facilities.
In a statement released Wednesday, prison officials said the cancellation is in response to "credible intelligence indicating that small groups of inmates at several institutions may attempt to disrupt operations and impact safety and security."
Officials declined to answer additional questions about the cancellation, but a corrections spokeswoman added that the cancellation doesn't apply to 32 work release centers.
