A Bulloch County Correctional Institute inmate caused a disturbance Saturday that will extend his time in confinement, Warden Chris Hill said. Around 9 p.m. Saturday, when an officer tried to conduct a routine head count, inmate Elmer Bryan Mathews, 18, of Lakeside Drive in Dacula, "disrupted" the count by "moving from side to side" in the room, which caused an incorrect count, he said. When the officer called for help to escort Mathews to isolation as punishment for his disobedience, he became "hostile and threw a tantrum," resisting officers' efforts to remove him from the area.
