Investigation into prison protest
An investigation is being carried out at a Warwickshire prison after two inmates finished a rooftop protest.

The men came down from the roof of a shed at Rye Hill prison near Rugby at just after 9.30pm on Saturday evening.

It is not clear what the demonstration at the jail, which is run by Global Solutions Ltd, was about.

The prison, situated in the village of Willoughby, says the inquiry will be conducted internally at Rye Hill by community officers.
