Press Release:
Hubbard County Sheriff, Cory Aukes reports that on August 7th at 5:30pm a Corrections Officer in the Hubbard County Jail was assaulted by an inmate. The Corrections Officer was sitting at a desk monitoring inmates in a housing unit when 23-year old inmate, Cole Pigeon of Bayport, MN exited his cell and attacked the officer. Pigeon stabbed the officer multiple times with a sharp piece of metal commonly known as a “shank” causing cuts to his head and face. The officer was able to fend his attacker off long enough before other Corrections Officers arrived on scene to assist. The Corrections Officer was transported to St Josephs Hospital in Park Rapids where he was treated for stab wounds. The investigation showed that Pigeon made the weapon from a bracket that he removed from a table in the recreation room. Pigeon made the statement that he stalked the officer before stabbing him and that he will stab more officers every chance he gets. He said the officers signed up for this. Pigeon was in the Hubbard County Jail due to a felony level criminal damage to property charge and assaulting a peace officer. New charges include 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th degree assault.
