The rampage lasted 36 hours and left at least 33 of the prison's 1,136 inmates dead. Two convicts were missing and probably dead, their bodies possibly consumed by the fires that gutted several buildings. Nine prisoners and one guard were seriously injured."

12 prison guards were taken hostage of which 7 were treated for injuries caused by rapes and beatings.
33 inmates died and more than 200 were treated for injuries. The victims were mainly the snitches that were kept in a separate block. The latter were tortured and severely beaten or killed. The riot was controlled more than 36 hours after it began when heavily armed State Police officers accompanied by National Guard servicemen entered the charred remains of the prison.
