MARYSVILLE – A 21-year-old Marysville man has been booked into the Snohomish County Jail and is being held on $150,000 bail after a fight in the Marysville Jail over a T-shirt.
The man is accused of punching a 29-year-old inmate in the face, breaking his jaw and knocking out several teeth, police reports say.
The injured inmate was taken to Providence Regional Medical Center Everett.
That man told police that the suspect traded a T-shirt with another inmate for French toast sticks that he never received. The victim said he happened to return the T-shirt, tossing it into the suspect’s cell because jail rules prevent him from going into another inmate’s cell. He said the tossing of the T-shirt apparently angered the suspect.
