ATLANTA — Several security breaches were found at the Fulton County Jail Friday afternoon after the sheriff's office said deputies discovered three substantial holes in the chain-linked fence leading to the back of the jail.
A breach was also found on the building's fifth floor, as a large hole was found in a newly-repaired window. Deputies immediately began a security count for all detainees on the fifth floor of the jail.
The breaches were found during an afternoon security check around 2 p.m. Friday, according to the sheriff's office.
A master count for all the jailers began shortly after with deputies saying that all inmates had been accounted for.

The causes of the breaches are under investigation and repairs have already begun.
Last month, an inmate at the Fulton County Jail dug a large hole through the cell wall in order to attack a neighboring inmate.
