Aaron Hernandez is back in the news.
The former New England Patriots tight end has been found with a homemade knife, also known as a “shank,” in his prison cell at Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in Shirley, Mass., Boston’s WHDH-TV reported Friday, citing sources.
The incident happened Thursday, sources told WHDH-TV, and Hernandez was put in a “segregated unit” afterward.
Hernandez was found guilty in April of first-degree murder in the June 2013 shooting of Odin Lloyd. He currently is serving a life sentence.
