Prisoner dies in custody in Clarinda

A man sent to prison for petty theft died in the Clarinda Correctional Facility this week. 27-year-old Cleve Wynn the Third was sentenced to prison in late July but was given probation for his third-degree burglary conviction in Woodbury County. He was sent to Clarinda September 20th after violating the terms of his parole. Wynn was lying in his bunk when found unconscious Wednesday night. He was transferred to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead upon arrival. Department of Corrections spokesman Fred Scaletta doesn’t know when autopsy results will be available.
