SALEM — Authorities say two inmates have been indicted on attempted murder, strangulation and other charges in an incident in which a deputy sheriff was assaulted.
The Marion County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release that 46-year-old Bradley Monical and 40-year-old Brian Eller were indicted Tuesday.
The charges stem from a November 2016 incident in which authorities say the two men attacked Marion County Deputy Sheriff Stacy Headrick in the county jail.
KATU-TV reports that Headrick, a 14-year office veteran, was on an hourly check in the early morning hours when the incident occurred.
Headrick was treated at a Salem hospital. No information was given about the extent of his injuries.
Monical and Eller have been transferred to another jail.
