Changes are coming to the City of Prichard. The city is teaming up with the Mobile County Sheriff's Office to house all inmates arrested in Prichard.
The Prichard jail can hold 60 inmates.
Currently, inmates charged with felonies are already housed at Mobile Metro Jail. Only people charged with misdemeanors are currently housed at Prichard.
The city says the move is not motivated by money, but some costs will be cut. Sheriff Sam Cochran may use the facility in the future to house overflow inmates from Mobile Metro Jail. Minor repairs will be made first.
