An inmate at a California prison is accused of killing his cellmate, who was convicted of multiple charges, including child trafficking.

The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) said Monday it is investigating a homicide that occurred Saturday at Kern Valley State Prison.

Gregory Clark, 58, was spotted by officers in his cell with blood on his clothes around 3:19 p.m. Saturday, according to CDCR. His cellmate Darius Swain, 41, was seen unresponsive in the cell, prompting a call for assistance.

Clark was removed without incident and medical personnel, who called 911, began life-saving measures on Swain.
